Abstract
In order to measure the photo damage threshold and infrared spectra of Mg:Er:LiNbO3 crystals,the high quality Mgx:Ery:LiNbO3(x=0.02,0.04,0.06,0.08,y=0.01(mole fraction)) crystals were grown by Czochralski technique.The experiment indicated that the photo damage resistance ability of Mg(0.06):Er:LiNbO3 and Mg(0.08):Er:LiNbO3 crystals improved the two orders magnitude over higher than that of LiNbO3 crystals and their OH-absorption peak of infrared spectra shifts to 3535cm-1 nearby.The experiment gained the steady state shoot spectra of Mg:Er:LiNbO3 crystals in wavelength 510nm~580nm finding doped with mole fraction 0.04 of MgO.The results showed that the Mg2+ concentration increased the photo damage resistance ability increased and the lifetime of Mg:Er:LiNbO3 crystal doped with mole fraction 0.04 of MgO was the longest.
