Abstract
The second-order nonlinear optical coefficients d(33), d(31), and d(15 ) of KTa0.52Nb0.48O3 epitaxial thin films grown upon MgO were studied by the standard Maker fringe method of an anisotropic medium. The meas ured das = -84 pm/V is 2.8 times the d(33) Of LiNbO3 The refractive in dices n(e) and n(o) at several wavelengths were determined by TE and T M waveguide mode measurements. The data presented here point out the e xcellent qualities of KTa1-xNbxO3 films for use in integrated optics a pplications. (C) 1997 Optical Society of America.
