Abstract:Small-sized potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP) samples cut from the pyramid sector of a large KDP boule are observed to have different impurity content. The nonlinear absorption properties of two KDP samples containing different impurities are characterized by Z-scan technique with picosecond laser at 355 nm wavelength. Reverse saturable absorption effects are found in samples, with nonlinear absorption coefficients of 7.35 × 10 −2 cm GW −1 and 15.91 × 10 −2 cm GW −1 . The sample with more impurity contents … Show more

“…Therefore, the LIDT of the KDP crystal was reduced. 10,11 Runkel et al 12 had studied the influence of these impurity cations on the laser damage for KDP crystals and found that the LIDT of doped crystals could not meet the requirements for application in National Ignition Facility (NIF) engineering. Fe 3+ , as the most typical impurity ion, existed in the raw material in a small amount.…”

The EPR technique could qualitatively and quantitatively detect unpaired electrons in crystals and explore the structural properties of the surrounding environment.…”
KDP and ADP crystals doped with different concentrations of Fe3+ ions were grown by the “point seed” technique and some KDP crystal samples were annealed. Positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy...

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
