Abstract

Lithium niobate crystal triply doped with zirconium, ruthenium and iron was grown by conventional Czochralski method and its nonvolatile storage characteristics were investigated by means of two-wavelength technology, where blue and red beam were used as recording and readout light, respectively. In oxidized Zr:Ru:Fe:liNbO₃ crystal, short response time of 9.1 s and high recording sensitivity of 0.92 cm/J were demonstrated, together with high fixed diffraction efficiency of 44.9% maintained. These excellent properties were attributed to the elimination of intrinsic defects by ZrO₂ doping and effective excitation of electrons by blue light. Our experimental results indicated this doped LiNbO₃ crystal was an outstanding medium for holographic storage applications.
