Abstract
Based on the autocollimation method results of the principal refractive ind ices of 7.5 mol.% Nb:KTiOPO4 (Nb:KTP) crystals for the wavelengths 539.75, 632.8, 1079.5, and 1341.4 nm at the temperature range from 319.25 to 416.15 K, simple expressions of the thermal refractive index coefficients as a fu nction of wavelengths are presented. They agree well with the measured resu lts and can be used to calculate the principal thermal refractive index coe fficients at different wavelengths in 7.5 mol.% Nb:KTP crystals for nonline ar optical device designing.
