Techniques for the Flux Growth of Optical Materials (Growth of Beta-BariumBorate)

摘要

This report describes the method of flux growth of non-linear optical singlecrystals and the techniques required to determine the flux choice. This is illustrated by the crystal growth of beta barium borate. These techniques are applicable to other optical materials.
