Abstract
One of the main defects in the self-frequency doubling crystal of Nd3-doped YAl3(BO3)4 (NYAB), which may be the key factor to influence the crystal performance, is the growth zone boundary that has been identi fied by means of x-ray diffraction topography. The characteristic boun dary is formed usually by the basal plane and the pyramidal planes or by the pyramidal planes themselves.
