Abstract

The effect of organic dyes on the dielectric properties of KH2PO4 (KDP) crystals is studied over a wide range of temperatures. The dielectric properties of KDP crystals doped with molecules of the Chicago Sky Blue and Amaranth organic dyes are investigated for the first time. The dye molecules can be incorporated into the crystal lattice of KDP and selectively paint the pyramidal growth sectors of the crystal. The influence of dye organic impurities on the domain contribution to the permittivity is analyzed with due regard for the sectoral crystal structure. It is demonstrated that, upon doping of KDP crystals with organic dyes, the blocking effect of background impurities on domain walls is substantially weakened in the prismatic growth sector of the crystal in the polar phase. This leads to a noticeable change in the dielectric properties, specifically to an increase in the domain contribution to the permittivity of the crystal.
