Nonlinear Optical Materials Research

This chapter contains the main reference material, namely, optical and nonlinear optical properties of 77 crystals which are used in applied nonlinear optics for frequency conversion of laser light. All nonlinear optical crystals described in this chapter are divided into four groups: basic, frequently used, other inorganic, and other organic. The properties of crystalline quartz which is not phase-matchable but nevertheless is often used as a standard in the d-tensor coefficients' measurements are given in a separate section. Inside every group of crystals an ordering of crystals according to the wavelength of the short-wave absorption edge was done.
