“…These materials are also used as laser-host materials when doped with trivalent impurities due to their high optical conversion efficiency, high birefringence and good thermal conductivity [4]. Recently, they have been used for the development of dual-wavelength lasers [5]. Furthermore, they can be also used to immobilize nuclear waste [6].…”

High-pressure Raman-scattering measurements and ab initio calculations on NdVO4 have been carried out up to 30 GPa. Our combined experimental and theoretical study confirms that beyond 5.9 GPa NdVO4 undergoes an irreversible zircon to monazite transition. The coexistence of zircon and monazite phases is experimentally observed up to ~ 8 GPa (which agrees with the theoretical transition pressure), stabilizing the monazite phase as a single phase around 10 GPa. Calculations additionally predict the existence of a second high-pressure phase transition at 12.4 GPa. This reversible phase transition has been experimentally observed beyond 18.1 GPa and remains stable up to 30 GPa. The post-monazite phase is predicted to have a monoclinic structure isomorphic to the BaWO4-II type structure. The calculated structure for the three polymorphs of NdVO4 is reported and the pressure dependence of their Raman modes is discussed.

“…Different from the optical frequency doubling, SRS is a third-order nonlinear optical process with many advantages such as larger angular acceptance, and no walk-off angle and phase-matching (PM) direction [8]. In the early years, SRS experiments were mostly based on liquids and gases including CH 4 , N 2 , and benzene etc.…”

Abstract:A new kind of borate crystalline material Sr 3 (BO 3 ) 2 with a similar calcite type structure was designed and synthesized by solid state reaction method, moreover, the single crystal growth was attempted with traditional Czochralski pulling method. Crystal phase of Sr 3 (BO 3 ) 2 was investigated by using X-Ray powder diffraction (XRPD) at room temperature and found similar to Ca 3 (BO 3 ) 2 crystal with space group of R-3c. The phase stability was studied by means of thermogravimetric differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA) and high temperature XRPD up to 1350 • C, where an obvious endothermic peak was observed in DTA curve around 1250 • C, and weak splits of diffraction peaks were found at temperatures above 1250 • C, indicating the existence of structure transformation for Sr 3 (BO 3 ) 2 crystal. Raman properties were studied experimentally and theoretically by using density functional perturbation theory, though the strongest frequency shift of Sr 3 (BO 3 ) 2 crystal (900 cm −1 ) was comparable to that of Ca 3 (BO 3 ) 2 (927 cm −1 ), the line width of the strongest Raman peak obtained for Sr 3 (BO 3 ) 2 (5.72 cm −1 ) was much lower than Ca 3 (BO 3 ) 2 (7.01 cm −1 ), indicating a larger Raman gain for Sr 3 (BO 3 ) 2 crystal, which would be favorable for stimulated Raman scattering application.

“…Stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) is one of the most important nonlinear optical (NLO) phenomena [1][2][3], and its characteristics and applications have been investigated for many solid state media such as YVO 4 [4,5], SrWO 4 [6,7], BaWO 4 [8][9][10], KGd(WO 4 ) 2 [11], Ba 2 TiSi 2 O 8 [12] and PbWO 4 [13,14]. In particular, new spectra lasers can be achieved by combining second-and third-order NLO frequency conversions.…”

Cascaded longitudinal stimulated Raman scattering (LSRS) and the frequency doubling process are reported for the first time. When potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP) crystals are used as the type I and type II frequency doublers of picosecond, focused 1064 nm laser pulses, strong LSRS effects are observed. Three new laser spectrum lines appeared successively, i.e. at 558.9, 588.9 and 622.1 nm, and were excited by the frequency doubling laser at 532 nm. Second- and third-order nonlinear optical frequency conversions were achieved in a single KDP crystal. The near-infrared light was thus converted into a new spectra laser spanning the green-to-red spectral range.
