“…Moreover, the ferroelectric phase transitions and the associated optical properties of KTN can be customized by changing the Nb content [ 6 , 7 ]. In addition, KTN has drawn much scientific attention because of its excellent quadratic electro-optic (EO) coefficient and large photorefractive effect in the vicinity of the Curie temperature ( T C ) [ 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ]. Different types of optical devices such as varifocal lenses, modulators, deflectors, and EO switches based on KTN crystals have been developed because of their giant EO effect [ 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 ].…”
