ADP及KDP晶体纵向压电系数d33的计算及其验证

ADP(磷酸二氢铵)和KDP(磷酸二氢钾)晶体都属于42m点群,是20世纪早期的著名压电晶体,具有易于大尺寸生长的优点。但它们在主轴坐标系中只有厚度切变压电系数(d14,d36),没有纵向压电系数(d33,k33),而这种纵向压电效应在实际应用中较多。本文通过利用坐标变换的方法,计算了这两种晶体纵向压电性能在空间的分布。通过计算,首先我们发现这两种晶体在空间存在着纵向伸缩压电效应,其次我们还得到了它们在空间的纵向压电系数的最大值和切型。ADP晶体:d33,m ax=8.66×10-12C/N,切型为(xywl)45°/50°;k33,m ax=0.07,切型为(xywl)45°/50°。KDP晶体:d33,m ax=4.54×10-12C/N,切型为(yzlw)45°/55;°k33,m ax=0.04,切型为(yzlw)45°/48°。ADP晶体的纵向压电性能略好于KDP。另外,本文还分别对上述计算结果进行了实验验证,实验结果与计算结果基本一致。对两种晶体压电器件的进一步开发和利用具有理论指导意义。

Laser excitation dependent nonlinear absorption of 2-Amino 5-Nitropyridinium dihydrogen phosphate

Abstract

Laser excitation and intensity-dependent third-order nonlinear optical (NLO) absorption properties of 2-amino 5-nitropyridinium dihydrogen phosphate (2A5NPDP) in both pulsed (532?nm, 5?ns, 100 µJ) and continuous wave (532?nm, 50?mW) regime were studied by Z-scan experiment. Under CW laser excitation, 2A5NPDP exhibits saturable absorption (SA) ascribed to be of thermo-optic origin. Interestingly the sample show reverse saturable absorption (RSA) due to genuine two-photon absorption (2PA) process under nano pulsed laser excitation. Earlier thermodynamic properties such as thermal conductivity (51?W/m.K), specific heat capacity (3894?J/Kg.K) and thermal diffusivity (7.5?×?10^?6 m²/s) were estimated theoretically from the DSC curves. Thus 2A5NPDP with excellent thermal stability and high NLO coefficients can be utilized as an energy-absorbing optical limiter and saturable absorber under nano pulsed and CW green laser excitation.
