Investigation on the blue photorefractive properties varied with MgO codoping in Ru:Fe:LiNbO3 crystals

Mg:Ru:Fe:LiNbO₃ crystals with various doping concentration of MgO have been grown by Czochralski method. The type of charge carriers and photorefractive properties in Mg:Ru:Fe:LiNbO₃ crystals were measured by two‐wave coupling method using Kr⁺ laser (476 nm) and He‐Ne laser (633 nm) as light sources. We found that holes were the dominant charge carriers under blue light irradiation while electrons were the dominant charge carriers under red light irradiation. Mg²⁺ ions behaved no longer as damage resistant, but promoter to the photorefractive properties at 476 nm wavelength. The photorefractive properties under blue light improved with the increase concentration of Mg²⁺ ions. The enhancement mechanisms of the blue photorefractive were suggested. Experimental results definitely showed that Mg‐doped two‐centre Ru:Fe:LiNbO₃ was a promising blue photorefraction material for holographic volume storage.

Defect structure and optical fixing holographic storage of Mg:Mn:Fe:LiNbO3 crystals

Mg:Mn:Fe:LiNbO₃ crystals were grown by the Czochralski method. The defect structure was analyzed by UV‐vis spectra and IR spectra. The holographic storage of Mg:Mn:Fe:LiNbO₃ crystals was measured by the two color fixed method. The results show that with the increase of MgO doping concentration, the writing time becomes shorter, the dynamic range decreases, photorefractive sensitivity increases and fixing diffraction efficiency decreases. When the MgO doping concentration exceeds 4.5 mol%, the fixing diffraction efficiency approaches zero. The effect of doping Mg ions on the holographic storage properties of Mn:Fe:LiNbO₃ crystals is discussed. (© 2008 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Microstructure and optical properties of Zn:Mn:Fe:LiNbO3 crystals

Zn:Mn:Fe:LiNbO₃ crystals were prepared by Czochralski technique. Its microstructure was measured and analyzed by UV‐Vis absorption spectra. The optical damage resistance of Zn:Mn:Fe:LiNbO₃ crystals was characterized by the transmitted beam pattern distortion method. It increases remarkably when the concentration of ZnO is over a threshold concentration. Its value in Zn(7.0 mol%):Mn:Fe:LiNbO₃ crystal is about three orders of magnitude higher that in the Mn:Fe:LiNbO₃ crystal. The dependence of the defects on the optical damage resistance was discussed. The non‐volatile holographic storage was realized in all crystals, and the sensitivity of the Zn(7.0 mol%):Mn:Fe:LiNbO₃ crystal is much higher than that of others. (© 2006 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Growth and optical homogeneity investigations of Fe and Fe:Mn codoped LiNbO3 crystals

Lithium niobate (LiNbO₃) crystals doped with Fe and Fe:Mn were grown by Czochralski technique. The doping concentrations of Fe and Mn were optimized. Transmission studies reveal broad absorption band centered at 488 nm. The UV cutoff observed for Fe doped LiNbO₃ is 358 nm whereas for Fe:Mn codoped LiNbO₃ is 352 nm. This decrease in UV cutoff for Fe and Mn codoped LiNbO₃ compared to only Fe doped LiNbO₃ is due to the increase in Li/Nb ratio. Optical homogeneity was assessed using conoscopy and birefringence interferometry. Dark and photo conductivity measurements prove that LiNbO₃ is a negative photo conducting material.

Investigation on photorefractive properties of doped lithium niobate

Cu:LiNbO₃ crystal and Fe:Cu:LiNbO₃ crystals were grown by the Czochralski method from congruent melt. The OH^‐ absorption spectrum of doped lithium niobate crystals was measured. The photorefractive properties of doped crystals were studied by the two‐wave coupling method. The results of the two‐wave coupling experiments showed that as the concentration of doping ions increased, the diffraction efficiency and the dynamic range enhanced, the holographic response time shortened. The recording time of Fe(0.10wt%): Cu(0.10wt%): LiNbO₃ crystal is only a tenth of that of Cu(0.05wt%): LiNbO₃ crystal. Among all samples, the dynamic range of the Fe(0.10wt%): Cu(0.10wt%): LiNbO₃ crystal was the most largest (up to 40.78). (© 2007 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Improved blue photorefractive properties of near‐stoichiometric LiNbO3:Mn:Fe:Zr crystal

Near‐stoichiometric LiNbO₃ single crystal tri‐doped with ZrO₂, MnO and Fe₂O₃ was grown from Li‐riched melt by Czochralski method. The defect structures and composition of these crystals were analyzed by means of ultraviolet‐visible and infrared transmittance spectra. The appearance of 3466 cm^‐1 peak in infrared spectra showed that the crystal grown from Li‐riched melt was near stoichiometric. The photorefractive properties at the wavelength of 488 nm and 633 nm were investigated with two‐beam coupling experiment, respectively. The experimental results showed that the response speed and sensitivity were enhanced significantly and the high diffraction efficiency was obtained at 488 nm wavelength. This manifested that near‐stoichiometric LiNbO₃:Mn:Fe:Zr crystal was an excellent candidate for holographic storage. (© 2010 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Optical absorption spectra of LiNbO3, Fe:LiNbO3, and Zn:Fe:LiNbO3 single crystals grown by Bridgman method

The optical absorption spectra of LiNbO₃ (LN), Fe:LiNbO₃ (Fe:LN), and Zn:Fe:LiNbO₃ (Zn:Fe:LN) single crystals grown by Bridgman method were measured and compared. The absorption characteristics of the samples and the effects of growth process conditions on the absorption spectra were investigated. The Fe, Zn and Li concentrations in the crystals were analyzed by inductively coupled plasma (ICP) spectrometry. The results indicated that the overall Fe ion and Fe²⁺ concentration in Fe:LN and Zn:Fe:LN crystals increased along the growing direction. The incorporation of ZnO in Fe:LN crystal induced increase of Fe²⁺ in the crystal. Among Fe‐doped and Zn:Fe‐codoped LN single crystals, 3 mol% ZnO doped Fe:LN had a biggest change of Fe²⁺ ion concentration from bottom to top part of crystal. The effects of technical conditions (atmosphere and thermal history) on Fe²⁺ ion concentration were discussed. (© 2004 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
