The invention discloses a compound
rubidium scandium tellurate second-order
nonlinear optical crystal as well as a preparation method and application thereof, and belongs to the technical field of optical
crystal materials. The method comprises the following steps: mixing a
scandium-containing compound, a
rubidium-containing compound and a
tellurium-containing compound, preparing the compound
rubidium scandium tellurate by adopting a
solid-
phase reaction method, and heating and melting the obtained compound rubidium scandium
tellurate single-phase polycrystalline
powder or a mixture of the obtained compound rubidium scandium tellurate single-phase polycrystalline
powder and a fluxing agent to obtain uniform mixed melt; or directly heating and melting a mixture of the scandium-containing compound, the rubidium-containing compound and the
tellurium-containing compound or a mixture of the scandium-containing compound, the rubidium-containing compound, the
tellurium-containing compound and the fluxing agent to obtain uniform mixed melt, and performing
crystal growth to obtain the scandium-containing rubidium-tellurium-containing crystal. The crystal has stable physical and chemical properties, has potential application value, can be applied to
nonlinear optical devices, such as
laser frequency multipliers, can generate
laser output different from incident light frequency, and provides new
material selection and
technical support for development of
laser technology.
