Absolute measurement of second-order nonlinear-optical coefficients of CsLiB_6O_10 for visible- to-ultraviolet second-harmonic wavelengths

The second-order nonlinear-optical coefficients of CsLiB6O10 have been absolutely determined for visible-to-ultraviolet second-harmonic wavelengths. The measurements were made by use of the wedge technique at the fundamental wavelengths of 0.532, 0.852, and 1.064 µm. The following values were obtained: d36=0.92 pm/V at 0.532 µm, d36=0.83 pm/V and d14=0.69 pm/V at 0.852 µm, and d36=0.74 pm/V at 1.064 µm.
