Summary on Grant Application Form
This is a collaborative project between Oxford, Warwick, Southampton and Sussex Universities, and is devoted to a study of the formation of periodically domain inverted non-linear optical crystals. These materials show immense promise for efficient frequency doubling of low power laser sources and will be applied to a wide variety of devices in bulk or waveguide form. The basic physics of the domain inversion process will be studied using x-ray anomalous scattering, structural studies and optical experiment. It is intended to establish which crystals are susceptible to domain inversion, particularly using electron beam direct write techniques.
