Abstract

Refractive indices of (1−x)Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3–xBaTiO3 (NBT–xBT, x=0, 0.06 and 0.08) single crystals were measured at room temperature after poled along pseudo-cubic crystallographic direction [001]. The refractive indices decrease dramatically when the wavelength increases for all crystals. At the same wavelength, refractive indices of NBT–xBT single crystals decrease with increasing BT content. Sellmeier dispersion equations were obtained by least square fitting, which can be used to calculate the refractive indices in low absorption wavelength range. Parameters connected to the energy band structure were determined by fitting single-oscillator dispersion equation. Similar to most oxygen-octahedral ferroelectrics, NBT–xBT crystals have the same dispersion behavior described by the refractive-index dispersion parameter. Dispersion energies take on covalent crystal values.
