Ca^2＋对KDP晶体的光损伤阈值的影响

Ca2 是KDP原料中一种常见的杂质离子,这种杂质不仅会影响晶体的生长过程,而且会加重晶体的光散射.通过传统降温法和点籽晶快速生长法生长不同Ca2 掺杂浓度的KDP晶体样品,对样品进行激光损伤实验,结果表明,Ca2 的存在降低了KDP晶体的光损伤阈值,其原因主要在于Ca2 掺杂导致晶体内部缺陷增多,内应力增加以及晶体中的散射颗粒密度增大使晶体光吸收加重.     

Influence of SiO_3~（2-）Impurity on the Optical Properties of KDP Crystal

In this paper,potassium dihydrogen phosphate(KDP) crystals were grown in the presence of a series of silicate(SiO32-) impurity concentrations via conventional temperature cooling and rapid growth methods,respectively.It revealed that the SiO32-impurity could lead to the decrease of transmittance at the region of ultraviolet band for pyramidal sectors and slightly increased the transmittance for prismatic sectors.SiO32-could enter into the crystal lattice and create lattice defects,which consequently increased the density of light scatter.The decrease of laser damage threshold was attributed to the lattice defects and the redundant electrons brought by the replacement of SiO32-at the PO43-position.
