The coefficients of the second-order nonlinear optical tensor for lithium niobate crystal with a composition close to stoichiometric were calculated. The calculated results show that the contribution of the Li-O group to the optical effects of the second harmonic was greater than the contribution of the Nb-O group. The results also showed that the most efficient frequency conversion occurred along the polar axis of the crystal

In this work we investigate the solvent media effects on the nonlinear optical properties of a chalcone derivative, (2E)-3-(3-methylphenyl)-1-(4-nitrophenyl) prop-2-en-1-one (3MPNP), using the polarizable continuum model (PCM) at DFT/B3LYP/6-311+G(d) level. The behavior of the hyper-Rayleigh scattering first hyperpolarizability and the average second hyperpolarizability, are studied as function of the dielectric constant of the solvent medium in both dynamic and static cases.

Many borate crystals feature nonlinear optical properties that allow for efficient frequency conversion of common lasers down into the ultraviolet spectrum. Twinning may degrade crystal quality and affect nonlinear optical properties, in particular if crystals are composed of twin domains with opposing polarities. Here, we use measurements of optical activity to demonstrate the existence of inversion twins within single crystals of YAl 3 (BO 3 ) 4 (YAB) and K 2 Al 2 B 2 O 7 (KABO). We determine the optical rotatory dispersion of YAB and KABO throughout the visible spectrum using a spectrophotometer with rotatable polarizers. Space-resolved measurements of the optical rotation can be related to the twin structure and give estimates on the extent of twinning. The reported dispersion relations for the rotatory power of YAB and KABO may be used to assess crystal quality and to select twin-free specimens.
