摘要
The photorefractive properties of stoichiometric LiNbO3 crystals with a small number of defect densities grown by the double-crucible Czockralski method are investigated and compared with the defect densities of commercially available congruent Fe-doped LiNbO3 crystals. Two-wave-mixing experiments show that novel stoichiometric crystals exhibit larger photorefractive gain;and considerably faster response times than congruent ones. The results indicate that the nonstoichiometry defect control of photorefractive crystals is of key importance for the improvement of their properties. (C) 1997 Optical Society of America.
