Abstract

We report a simple method for determining photovoltaic constant and conductivities of any photorefractive crytals which have no inversion symmetry by utilizing the electric field dependence of non-phase-matched second harmonic generation. New theoretical expression for the electric field dependence of Maker fringes is derived and space charge field can be determined using this from the observed change of intensity of second harmonic wave. The photovoltaic constant, dark conductivity and photoconductivity are easily deduced from an analysis of the measured relaxation behavior of space-charge field at two different light intensities. We demonstrate this method for $LiNbO_3$ at 514.5 nm.4.5 nm.

반전대칭이 없는 광굴절결정에 있어 위상접합이 만족되지 않은 상태에서 발생된 제2고조파의 세기가 외부전기장에 의존한다는 사실을 이용하여 광굴적결정의 광굴절율 변형현상에 관한 중요상수를 측정할 수 있는 방법을 개발하였다. 마커무늬의 전기장의존도에 관한 근사식을 구하였고 이를 이용하여 제2고조파의 세기변화로부터 공간전하장의 크기를 측정할 수있었다. 실험적으로 congruent $LiNbO_3$에 빛을 두가지 다른 세기로 비추어 유도되는 공간저하장의 시간의존성을 조사하였고 측정결과를 근사식과 비교분석하여 $LiNbO_3$의 광기전력상수, 암전도상수 및 광전도상수를 결정할 수 있었다.
