Abstract

Single crystals of niobium-doped KTiOPO4(Nb∶ KTP) have been grown on Z-oriented seeds with a small addition of Nb2O5 using the hydrothermal technique out of a two zone furnace.Transparent crystals measuring up to 24.7 mm×14.7 mm×42.6 mm were obtained.The habit of the hydrothermal Nb∶ KTP was investigated.Macro-and micro-defects in Nb∶ KTP were also studied.Optical transmission spectra of Nb∶ KTP and pure KTP were measured for evaluating the quality of the Nb∶ KTP crystal.
