Looking fur compounds with optical properties comparable or better than those of urea we have performed crystallization tests on phenylurea, 1,1-dimethylurea and 1,3-dimethylurea. Appreciable results have been obtained for 1,3-dimethylurea grown by the normal freezing method. The ingots display good keeping and mechanical properties. Phase matching has been achieved with an encouraging doubling efficiency. (C) 2000 Published by Elsevier Science S.A. References: 4
