Abstract

Magnesium1-3, zinc4-6 and some other impurities (substituting mainly for the lithium sites) drastically change optical properties of LiNbO3. In particular the value of optical damage (photorefraction) in LiNbO3:Me (Me = Mg,Zn,…) is sharply reduced compared with undoped LiNbO32-6. Similarly Me impurities tend to supress so-called "dark trace” effect4-6 (that means stable darkening under intensive visible laser radiation).
