“…When calculating the NLO properties of those structures, there can be different choices of the sizes for the basic structural units to obtain the microscopic SHG coefficients. For example, when calculating BBO, LBO, CBO, CLBO (CsLiB 6 O 10 ) [28], the basic units for the structures were chosen as B 3 O 6 , B 3 O 7 , respectively. We further made the calculations of those crystals by decomposing their structural units into the smallest possible ones of BO 3 and BO 4 .…”

Abstract:In this mini-review type of article, a brief summary of the anionic group approximation as it relates to the borate nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals, an idea firstly proposed by Professor Chen, is presented. The basic idea, calculation method, tabulated coefficients of various common borate, as well as nitrate or carbonate groups, in their ideal geometries will be presented. New practices reveal that those parameters can still give very accurate predicted NLO coefficients for recently found NLO crystals without any adjustment of parameters.

“…It is favorable if the crystal is transparent at twice the harmonic frequency to avoid two-photon absorption. Recently, several borate based new NLO crystals have been discovered [5][6][7][8][9]. The special performances of these borate-based crystals are their capability to broaden the range of harmonic generation even in VUV spectral region in some newly discovered crystals.…”

Second harmonic generation (SHG) in nonlinear optical crystal is well-established technique for the measurement of the pulse-width of ultrafast femtosecond laser pulses. However, only selected nonlinear crystalline materials are suited for this purpose due to the limitations in transparency cut-off, limited phase-matching wavelength range, and large difference between the group velocities of the fundamental and harmonic waves. It is found that some newly discovered crystals, such as CsLiB 6 O 10 (CLBO), K 2 Al 2 B 2 O 7 (KABO), Li 2 B 4 O 7 (LB4), and KBe 2 BO 3 F (KBBF) have some advantageous characteristics for use in ultrafast nonlinear optical applications. Here we have presented several linear and nonlinear optical parameters including phase-matching angle, angular and spectral acceptance bandwidths, walk-off angle, nonlinear coupling coefficient, and group-velocity mismatch for generation of second harmonic of ultrafast laser radiations by employing type-I and type-II SHG techniques in these crystals.

“…CLBO is well established as the nonlinear material of choice [Mori, et al, 1995] for efficient fourth harmonic conversion of diode-pumped solid-state neodymium lasers with moderate pulse energies but high average powers and high PRF. CLBO has a high nonlinear coefficient and a large temperature and angular acceptance.…”
