电光效应的自相似性

通过对KNbO₃,LiNbO₃,BaTiO₃及几种半导体晶体的电光系数进行数值分析，发现电光系数在自由状态和受夹状态下对应的Miller-δ系数相同，与外加电场频率无关，进而提出用Miller-δ系数表征晶体非线性光学性质.在此基础上，提出一种全新的电光效应产生机制，认为电光效应源于非线性系统的自相似性，表现为对线性性质的一种“自我复制”，而Miller-δ系数是“自我复制”的比例因子. 关键词： 电光效应 非线性光学 自相似性

光纤马赫-曾德尔干涉法测量极化聚合物的电光系数

报道了用光纤马赫曾德尔干涉法测量极化聚合物电光系数的方法和原理。该方法不仅可以测量聚合物薄膜的电光系数而且可以测量聚合物波导的电光系数,并且该方法可以同时测量聚合物的电光系数张量元r13和r33。该方法最突出的优点是不必在聚合物薄膜的表面制备第二个电极,因此尤其适合于在电光聚合物试制阶段测试聚合物的电光系数。干涉仪的输出被反馈到参考臂中控制相位偏置点的压电陶瓷,从而实现对干涉仪相位偏置点的闭环控制,因此降低了对环境稳定性的要求并且提高了测量精度。实际测试了极化聚合物薄膜PMMA-DR1的电光系数张量,其测量值r13=8.3 pm/V,r33=25.7 pm/V。     

Different temperature dependences of photorefractive parameters of Ce-doped and Rh-doped BaTiO3

eff and the electro-optic coefficient r₃₃ in Ce-doped and Rh-doped BaTiO₃ were determined by two-beam coupling measurements. It was found that the effective trap density N_eff of BaTiO₃:Ce increases whereas that of BaTiO₃:Rh decreases with increasing temperature. The electro-optic coefficient r₃₃ of both crystals increases with temperature. The photorefractive response times were also measured and found to decrease with different rates as temperature increases in the two crystals. The results were discussed by using the two-centre model for BaTiO₃:Ce and three-charge-state model for BaTiO₃:Rh. We found that the different temperature dependence of N_eff in the two crystals was due to the fact that the deep- and shallow-trap levels in BaTiO₃:Ce are caused by different impurity centres whereas those in BaTiO₃:Rh are caused by different charge states of the same impurity centre.

High Accuracy and High Sensitivity Measurements of the Electrooptic Effect in Undoped and MgO-Doped LiNbO3 Crystals

Accurate measurements of the composite electrooptic (EO) coefficients r_c consisting of the EO coefficients r₁₃, r₃₃, and the piezoelectric constant d₃₁ in undoped and MgO-doped LiNbO₃ (LN) were made by extracting the fundamental and third harmonic components from photo-detection signals of the parallel Nicol optics including the LN crystal driven by minimal sinusoidal voltage. The analysis of relationship between multiple-reflection rays in the EO crystal and the accuracy of measurement indicates that anti-reflection films must be coated on the end faces of the crystal for highly accurate measurements. Measured values of r_c of undoped and MgO-doped LN crystals at a wavelength of 632.8 nm were 19.8 ± 0.1 pm/V and 19.2 ± 0.1 pm/V, respectively.     

Index of refraction, optical activity and electro-optic coefficient of bismuth titanium oxide (Bi12TiO20)

12 TiO₂₀. The first two can be measured by simple and classical methods, but the coexistence of optical activity, electrogyration, field-induced linear birefringence, and piezoelectric and photoelastic effects in photorefractive materials such as Bi₁₂TiO₂₀ complicate the measurement of the electro-optic coefficient. For normal incidence of linearly polarized light we derive analytic expressions for the polarization of light that has passed through the crystal. The ellipticity of the polarization is a function of the electric-field-induced linear birefringence and hence of the electro-optic coefficient of the crystal. Therefore measurement of the ellipticity as a function of an electric field externally applied to the crystal leads to an electro-optic coefficient r₄₁ of 5.3±0.1 pm/V.

Material tensor parameters of LiNbO3 relevant for electro- and elasto-optics

The complete set of self-consistent parameters of nominally undoped LiNbO₃ crystals of congruent composition that describe the electro-optic, piezoelectric, elasto-optic, elastic, and dielectric response has been determined by numerically evaluating available measurements. The parameters were determined at room temperature and consist of the low-frequency clamped dielectric constants ε^S _ij, elastic stiffness constants at constant electric field C^E _ijkl, piezoelectric stress coefficients e_ijk, elasto-optic constants at constant electric field p^E _ijkl, and clamped electro-optic coefficients r^S _ijk. It is shown that the complete set is required for calculating the effective electro-optic coefficients and dielectric constants in photorefractive applications of LiNbO₃.

Frequency and wavelength dependencies of the electro-optic coefficients in SBN:60 single crystal

We report the dependence of the high and low-frequency values of the linear electro-optic (EO) coefficient r_c=r₃₃-(n_o/n_e)³r₁₃ of Sr_0.6Ba_0.4Nb₂O₆ (SBN:60) single crystal on the laser wavelength. The EO response has been carried out from dc to 150 MHz for four wavelengths ranging from 465 to 1321 nm. The clamped r^S and unclamped r^T coefficients have been determined and their dispersions as a function of wavelength have been established and discussed.     

A holographic method for the determination of all linear electrooptic coefficients applied to Ce-doped strontium-barium-niobate

Using c- and a-cut plates of strontium-barium-niobate doped with 0.66 mol.% cerium all nonzero components of the linear electrooptic tensor r₁₃, r₄₂, r₃₃ including the sign are determined from angular dependence of the two-beam coupling coefficient Γ using transmission and reflection geometry of holographic recording. We found: r₁₃=56 pm/V, r₄₂=38 pm/V, and r₃₃=333 pm/V. In addition we calculated the effective trap density N_eff to be 2.2×10¹⁷ cm^-3. The advantages of this method as well as the values obtained are discussed. Received: 19 November 1998 / Revised version: 15 January 1999 / Published online: 7 April 1999     

Pockels effect in yttrium aluminum borate single crystals

Experimental measurements of linear electro-optical coefficients are reported for YAl₃(BO₃)₄ (YAB) single crystals for the two principal tensor components xyz and yyy at the wavelength of a CW semiconducting GaAlAs laser emitting at 1040 nm. We have found the values of the Pockels coefficients to be equal to 0.21 ± 0.06 and 0.56 ± 0.08 pm/V for 123 and 222 Pockels components, respectively. Additional measurements performed for the thin-cut samples with the thickness varying within the 100–500 μm have confirmed the values of the corresponding parameters. We have eliminated a contribution of the piezooptical coefficients as well as for other disturbing factors. We have established that the crystals with a different number of defects do not show any differences, which indicate the principal role of the borate clusters on the observed effects. The temperature changes are very low (due to a low ionic contribution), and do not exceed 5–6%, which indicates the low contribution of the electron-phonon to the Pockels effect. Because the YAB crystals possess a very large photothermal damage (more than 15 GW/cm²) and are only slightly temperature dependent. Hence, they may be proposed as promising materials for high-power laser electro-optic modulators.     

Comparison of the electro-optic coefficient r33 in well-defined phases of proton exchanged LiNbO3 waveguides

The electro-optic coefficient, r₃₃, of proton exchanged LiNbO₃ waveguides has been measured in well-defined phases of the exchanged layer. Namely, in two low index-jump α-phases, i.e. unannealed soft-exchanged (SPE) and annealed (APE) guides, and in two high index-jump phases, i.e. β₁ guides and, for comparison, ordinary proton exchanged (PE) guides (having a mixture of phases). The following values have been obtained (in pm/V): 22.1±0.6 for SPE; 20.9±0.7 for APE; 0.33±0.01 for β₁; and 0.76±0.04 for PE. Differences between these values are discussed in terms of the structure of the phase involved. Received: 18 May 2001 / Revised version: 22 August 2001 / Published online: 30 October 2001     

The electro-optic effect in proustite

The low-frequency unclamped electro-optic coefficients of proustite have been measured at an optical wavelength of 0.6328m. The results show thatr ₂₂ is comparable to that of lithium niobate,r ₁₃ andr ₃₃ are considerably lower. The maximum theoretical value is calculated at 10.8×10^–12 m/V about three times the largest measured coefficient value.
