Abstract
A series of ZrO2-doped Ru:Fe:LiNbO3 crystals with various Li composition were grown by conventional Czochralski technique. The OH- absorption spectra were measured, and the Lorentzian fitting was employed to analyze the defect structures. The photorefractive properties in these crystals were investigated as a function of Li/Nb ratios. The recording sensitivity of Li-enriched Zr:Ru:Fe:liNbO3 crystal was 1.70 cm /J, and the diffraction efficiency was as high as 44.3%, while this crystal could withstand a laser intensity of 3.4 × 104 W/cm2 at 476 nm irradiation. Experimental results definitely showed that Zr:Ru:Fe:LiNbO 3 crystals were promising blue photorefraction materials for holographic volume storage.
