  • Abstract
    BaMF4 (M=Mg, Zn) single crystals were grown by the Czochralski technique. Ferroelectric characters were measured, which are required for the SHG by the QPM technique. Periodical poling of domains with a period of 24 mum was carried out. Present results point towards the 193 nm SHG by the QPM technique.
