S. Suma et al., A NEW FLUX FOR THE FAST GROWTH OF POTASSIUM TITANYL PHOSPHATE (KTP) SINGLE-CRYSTALS, Journal of materials science. Materials in electronics, 9(1), 1998, pp. 39-42
Single crystals of the non-linear optical material KTiOPO4 (KTP) have
been grown using a new KBa2(PO3)(5) . 2K(2)O flux, which produced fast
er growth than existing fluxes. Crystals of size 6 mm x 4 mm x 2 mm we
re grown from the flux in a day. Perhaps relatively large crystals may
be grown commercially in a short time. (C) 1998 Chapman & Hall.
