Electro-optic and dielectric properties of KTiOPO4

Abstract

The electro-optic and dielectric properties of potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) have been measured from dc to 1 GHz and are compared with other electro-optic materials. KTP is shown to possess a combination of properties that make it unique for a variety of electro-optic modulator applications.

“…It possesses many important properties such as high thermal stability, good mechanical characteristics, transparency over a large wavelength range, large nonlinear-optical coefficients, high damage threshold, and broad angular acceptance spectral bandwidth [1][2][3][4]. Their figures of merit for an electro optic wave guide is nearly double that of any known inorganic material, which makes KTP a potential lowloss optic wave guide material [5][6][7].…”

“…High-quality commercial lasers in visible spectral regimes have been realized in this material via frequency doubling of infrared lasers (Bierlein & Arweiler, 1986). Fabrication of waveguides on KTP have been reported using proton exchange (Roelofs et al, 1993), pulsed laser deposition (PLD) (Wang et al, 1998), and ion implantation (Bindner et al, 2001;Schrempel et al, 2004;Chen et al, 2008d;Wang et al, 2008;.…”
