铌酸锂晶体(LiNbO3)是一种典型的非化学计量比晶体,通常所使用的同成分LiNbO3晶体中的锂铌比([Li]/[Nb])约为48.6/51.4。我们利用提拉法,从掺入11mol%k2O的同成分LiNbO3熔体中生长出了高光学质量的近化学计量比LiNbO3单晶。与同成分LiNbO3晶体相比,其吸收边向短波方向移动;E模(153cm-1)喇曼谱线宽从9.4cm-1降低到了7.0cm-1,A1模(876cm-1)喇曼谱线宽从25.5cm-1降低到了20.0cm-1;产生532nm~1064nm 2次谐波的相匹配温度从室温增加到了155.5℃;OH-红外吸收谱线宽明显变窄,波形也有明显的变化。这些结果表明这种LiNbO3晶体中的LiO2含量为49.6mol%,即[Li]/[Nb]为0.984,接近其化学计量比
Lithium niobate(LiNbO3) crystal is a kind of typical non-stoichiometric crystal,and generally used one is congruent crystal with [Li]/[Nb] ratio of about 48.6/51.4.In this paper,we report that near-stoichiometric LiNbO3 crystal is grown with Czochralski method from a congruent melt with addition of 11mol% K2O.In comparison with congruent one,the position of absorption edge moves to short wave,Ramam linewidth decreases from 9.4cm-1 to 7.0cm-1 for the E mode(153cm-1) and from 25.5cm-1 to 20.0cm-1 for the A1 mode (876cm-1).Its phase-matching temperature for 1064-532nm second harmonic generation increases from room temperature to 155.5℃ and its OH- infrared absorption band is changed distinctly in shape.The linewidth also becomes greatly narrower.According to these measurements,the lithium oxide content in crystal can be estimated to be about 49.6mol%,which is closed to the ideal stoichiometry of LiNbO3 crystal.
