摘要：

Single crystals of La2CaB10O19 (LCB) were grown by flux method. The main physical properties of using LCB as a frequency conversion device were evaluated. The crystal has a high transparency from ultraviolet (UV) to infrared range. The four nonvanished nonlinear optical coefficients measured by Maker fringes method are 0.433, 0.484, 0.437 and 0.640 pm/V for d(21), d(22), d(23) and d(14), respectively. The damage threshold of (001) plane of LCB was measured to be 11.5 GW/cm(2). Besides the good optical properties, the crystal also has good thermal and mechanical properties and stable chemical properties for processing and application. All these properties provide LCB with a good application prospect as a frequency conversion device. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
