Effect of Li/Nb ratio on holographic storage properties of In:LiNbO 3 crystals

In:LiNbO 3 crystals with different Li/Nb ratios in the melts (Li/Nb = 0.94, 1.0, 1.1, 1.2) have been grown. The changes of the crystal structure on the Li/Nb were analyzed by the ultraviolet–visible absorption spectra. The holographic storage properties of In:LiNbO 3 crystals were investigated by tw...

Zusammenfassung:In:LiNbO 3 crystals with different Li/Nb ratios in the melts (Li/Nb = 0.94, 1.0, 1.1, 1.2) have been grown. The changes of the crystal structure on the Li/Nb were analyzed by the ultraviolet–visible absorption spectra. The holographic storage properties of In:LiNbO 3 crystals were investigated by two‐wave coupling technique. The diffraction efficiency, response time, and photoconductivity of the crystals were measured. With increase in the ratio of Li/Nb, the diffraction efficiency decreases, the response time shortens, and the photoconductivity increases. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
