Nonlinear‐laser χ (3) ‐ and χ (2) ‐effects in fine‐grained highly transparent optical Ba(Mg,Zr,Ta)O 3 ceramics and their microhardness

Abstract We report on laser‐induced χ (3) ‐ and χ (2) ‐nonlinear generation in novel optical ceramics, Ba(Mg,Zr,Ta)O 3 , with “disordered” O 5 h structure, namely high‐order Stokes and anti‐Stokes lasing, third‐ and second‐harmonic generation under one‐micrometer picosecond pumping. Microhardness an...

Summary:Abstract We report on laser‐induced χ (3) ‐ and χ (2) ‐nonlinear generation in novel optical ceramics, Ba(Mg,Zr,Ta)O 3 , with “disordered” O 5 h structure, namely high‐order Stokes and anti‐Stokes lasing, third‐ and second‐harmonic generation under one‐micrometer picosecond pumping. Microhardness and fracture toughness were also measured. (© 2008 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
