Abstract

Phase formation and crystal growth conditions for different combinations of cations corresponding to chemical formula of KTP were studied. Preparation of new Ti-less arsenates which arc isostructural with KTP is reported. In the single crystals grown Ti4+ cations were completely substituted with M2+ + Nb5+ (M = Mg, Zn) or M3+ + Nb5+ (M = Al, Cr, Ga, Fe, In) cation couples. The crystals were prepared by spontaneous crystallization using flux method. The structure analysis was made by X-ray powder diffraction technique. The crystals composition was measured by electron probe microanalysis (EPMA). Second harmonic generation (SHG) effect was studied by the powder technique with a pulsed YAG:Nd laser (1064 nm). SHG signal of the crystals was found to be slightly greater than that of KTiOAsO4 (KTA).
