Abstract

AbstractA series of In:Nd:LiNbO3 crystals were grown by Czochralski technique and were made into waveguide substrates. The optical damage resistance of the In:Nd:LiNbO3 waveguide substrates was characterized by measurement of the holographic method. The optical damage resistance of In (3.0 mol%):Nd:LiNbO3 was much higher than that of other In:Nd:LiNbO3. The ultraviolet‐visible (UV‐Vis) absorption spectra the In:Nd:LiNbO3 crystals were measured and investigated. The structure defects were discussed in this paper to explain the enhance of the optical damage resistance in the In:Nd:LiNbO3 crystals. (© 2003 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
