Gq. Zhang et al., THEORETICAL-STUDY OF RESISTANCE AGAINST LIGHT-INDUCED SCATTERING IN LINBO3-M (M = MG2+, ZN2+, IN3+, SC3+) CRYSTALS, Optics letters, 22(22), 1997, pp. 1666-1668
Based on a multi-three-wave mixing model, we theoretically study the r
esistance against light-induced scattering in LiNbO3:M (M = Mg2+, Zn2, In3+, Sc3+) crystals. We have simulated the intensity angular distri
bution of light-induced scatterings. We have also shown that the total
light-induced scattering will be much less than 1% of the incident li
ght intensity when the photovoltaic field E-ph is less than 4.0 x 10(6
) V/m. Phase gratings and signal beams can still be formed and amplifi
ed effectively in LiNbO3:M crystals, with E-ph less than 4.0 x 10(6) V
