Growth and mechanical properties of near-stoichiometric LiNbO 3 crystal

Effect of Zirconium Content on Defect Structure and Light Damage Resistance of Zr:Dy:LiNbO3 Crystals

“…Doped crystals have practical application value in laser modulation devices, radio high-frequency band filter devices, high-frequency and hightemperature transducer devices, infrared detectors, Q-switching devices, optical parametric oscillation devices, and many other aspects. [13][14][15][16][17] At present, the known anti-photodamage ions are Mg 2+ , Zn 2+ , In 3+ , Sc 3+ , Hf 4+ , Zr 4+ , etc. [18][19][20] Therefore, in this paper, on the basis of the laser performance of doped Dy 3+ ions, in order to increase the photodamage resistance of the material and increase its practical application, it is considered to select Zr 4+ for doping while doping Dy 3+ ions to enhance its anti-photodamage performance.…”
