Abstract: | We review on the growth improvement and optical characterization of a new family of ternary lithium-based chalcogenide crystals of generic formula (B = In, Ga; C = S, Se, Te) which displays improved thermo-mechanical properties for mid-IR nonlinear optical applications. Some of these compounds are now produced in sufficiently large size, single-domain quality to allow their implementation in optical parametric oscillators. |
