Abstract
This paper presents a review of electro-optical and nonlinear-optical crystals. Materials properties relevant for electro-optic modulator-, display- and storage applications and nonlinear-optical applications such as optical frequency doubling, optical parametric oscillation and optical sum- and difference frequency generation are discussed. Ferroelectrics as well as other piezoelectric dielectrics and semiconductors, with light transmission ranges extending from 180 nm up to 25 μm, have been included in this review.Keywords
