  • Abstract
    Temperature coefficients of refractive indexes dn/dt determine temperature stability and temperature tuning in nonlinear optical laser devices. These coefficients for three infrared crystals HgS, GaSe, and Tl3AsSe3are analyzed for the first time to find refractive indexes at different temperatures to predict therefrom the tuning curves for some three-wave parametric interactions.
