Abstract :
Electrooptic properties of cuprous chloride (CuCl) have been measured at 10.6 µ. The measured electrooptic and absorption coefficients were 3.2×10-12m/V and 0.02 cm-1, respectively. These results indicate that CuCl will be used as a low-loss electrooptic material at 10.6 µ as well as in the visible range.
