  • Radial Distribution Study of Vitreous Barium Borosilicate G
    JOURNAL OF RESEARCH of the National Bureau of Standards—A. Physics and Chemistry Vol.l67Af No. 1, January-February 1963 Radial Distribution Study of Vitreous Barium Borosilicate G. J. Piermarini* and S. Block (September 19, 1962) An X-ray diffraction study of a barium borosilicate glass consisting of 24 mole percent barium oxide, 40 mole percent boric oxide, and 36 mole percent silicon dioxide has been per- formed. Resulting atomic radial distribution functions give the following average inter- atomic distances: Si-O, 1.6 A; Ba-O, 2.8 A; Ba-Ba, 4.7 A; and Ba-Ba, 6.8 A. From the 4.7 A Ba-Ba separation a Ba-O-Ba bond angle of about 115° has been calculated. The observed average barium separations are in partial agreement with that predicted by Levin and Block on the basis of a structural interpretation of immiscibility data. A proposed coordination change by Levin and Block for the barium atoms in the system has been confirmed, but the details of the coordination change mechanism have not. Combining the results of the radial distribution study and immiscibility data on the barium borosilicate modifier-rich liquid at maximum barium oxide content has indicated that approximately 16.75 mole percent barium oxide is involved in the 4.7 A separation and 8.25 mole percent is associated with the 6.8 A separation. A mechanism which allows the composition of the modifier-rich liquids in the ternary system to be calculated has been presented. The calculated composition has been found to agree well with the experimental value.

In SPDC, a pump photon interacts with a non-linear optical crystal and splits into two entangled photons called the signal and the idler photons. The SPDC process has been studied extensively in the last few decades for various pump and crystal configurations, and the entangled photon pairs produced by SPDC have been used in numerous experimental studies on quantum entanglement and entanglement-based real-world quantum-information applications.

  • Crystallization Behavior of New Transparent Glass-Ceramics Based on Barium Borate Glasses
    Journal of the Ceramic Society of Japan 116 [5] 624-631 2008 Paper Crystallization behavior of new transparent glass-ceramics based on barium borate glasses Fatma Hassan MARGHA,*,** Salwa Abdel-Hameed Mohamed ABDEL-HAMEED,* Nagwa Abd El-Shafy GHONIM,* Shigeo SATOKAWA**,† and Toshinori KOJIMA** *Glass Research Department, National Research Center, Dokki, Cairo 12622, Egypt **Department of Materials and Life Science, Faculty of Science and Technology, Seikei University, Tokyo 180-8633, Japan This paper describes the preparation of several new transparent and very fine crystal glass-ceramics from the BaO–B2O3 system utilizing an appropriate additive of fluorides, partial replacement of B2O3 by SiO2, and introducing nucleating agents, such as TiO2. The physical properties of the prepared materials and the changes with varying base glass compositions and heat treatment programs were investigated. The thermal behavior and microstructure of the developed phases were characterized using DTA, XRD, and SEM. Glass-ceramics with marked transparency were prepared. These transparent derivatives owe their transparency to the distinctive properties of the nano-crystalline samples. The dielectric constant of transparent glass- ceramics samples at 100 kHZ were between 14–20, which is very suitable for a wide range of applications, such as the high- – speed switching of large-scale integrators. It was found that the addition of F and SiO2 greatly influenced the transparency of the produced glass-ceramics. Also, the addition of TiO2 greatly enhanced transparency, in spite of increasing cutoff in the UV region to a higher wavelength. ©2008 The Ceramic Society of Japan. All rights reserved.

The optimal thicknesses of those crystals to avoid any pump pulse depletion for a fundamental-mode laser pulse having a high intensity and a long pulsewidth was calculated as a function of the intensity and the pulsewidth of the fundamental mode. Also, for short-pulse operation, thickness limits are calculated for conditions under which no pulse dispersion due to group velocity mismatch is observed. Finally, the fluctuation of second-harmonic yield due to temperature variations which introduce a refractive-index change is calculated, and the effective temperature ranges are demonstrated for room-temperature operation.

  • Crystal Growth of Multifunctional Borates and Related Materials
    crystals Editorial Crystal Growth of Multifunctional Borates and Related Materials Nikolay I Leonyuk Department of Crystallography and Crystal Chemistry, Moscow State University, 119992 Moscow, Russia; [email protected] Received: 15 March 2019; Accepted: 19 March 2019; Published: 21 March 2019 Keywords: crystal growth; crystallography; crystal chemistry; borates; multifunctional materials Crystalline materials play an important role in modern physics and electronics. Therefore, the demand for crystals with functional properties is increasing strongly, due to the technical advance in different fields: telecommunications, computer devices, lasers, semiconductors, sensor technologies, etc. At the first stage, natural minerals (e.g., quartz) were widely used as piezoelectric and optical material. Later on, after the creation of the first laser, interactions between lasers and materials have been investigated: radiation at the double the frequency of a ruby laser was observed as the fundamental light passing through a quartz crystal [1]. This phenomenon became a substantial contribution to the field of quantum electronics and nonlinear optics. However, natural single crystals usually have insufficient purity, size, occurrence, and homogeneity, or do not even exist in nature. That is why the material scientists began to develop important basic materials with the desirable properties. As an example, at the beginning of the 1960s, this resulted in Czochralski growth of Y3Al5O12 crystals, referred to as YAG, which is the progenitor of the large group of synthetic materials belonging to the structural type of natural garnet family A3B2(SiO4)3 [2]. Owing to a reasonable growth technology, these crystals and their numerous derivatives including transparent nano-ceramics are dominating the elemental base for solid-state laser engineering and various practical applications.

Temperature-dependent measurements of further borates are presented for the first time: α-BaB2O4 (295–673 K), β-BaB2O4 (98–693 K), LiB3O5 (98–650 K) and K2Al2B2O7 (98–348 K). In addition to the established criteria for nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of crystals, here the role of the anisotropy and anharmonicity of the thermal vibrations of atoms is analysed as well as changes in their coordination spheres and the anisotropy of the thermal expansion of the crystal structure. Non-centrosymmetric borates, especially those that have NLO properties, often show distinct anisotropies for each cation in comparison to centrosymmetric borates.

Ezhil Pavai, P. Sangeetha, L. Balu preparing glasses by alone, it is used to behave as a network Abstract: Glasses of the formula 68B2O3-(32-x)PbO-xBaO (0≤ x former/modifier in glass matrices and also addition to glass ≤ 12) were synthesized by standard melt quench technique and network, stabilizes the glass [8, 9]. Moreover doping with investigated their properties using XRD, ultrasonic, FT-IR and barium ions, these glasses show low dispersion, co-efficeint DTA studies. No sharp peaks are existing in the XRD spectra and of thermal expansion and melting point as well as high the broad halo appeared around 2θ≈30o, which reflects the characteristics of amorphous nature. Density decreases due to the refraction and electric resistance [10, 11]. The authors were replacement of higher molar mass by lower molar mass. The attempted to synthesis and characterize the BaO doped B2O3 ultrasonic velocity varies with the gradual substitutions of barium – PbO glasses by using several techniques such as XRD, ions in leadborate host glass matrix. The variations in elastic ultrasonic velocity, DTA and FT-IR. moduli such as L, G, K and E), Poisson’ sratio(), acoustic impedance(Z), microhardness (H) and Debye temperature II. EXPERIMENTAL (θD)were observed which resulted in compact glasses. The functional groups of prepared glasses were studied by FTIR A. Sample preparation analysis and BO4 structural units enhanced with decreasing BO3 Glasses of formula 68B2O3-(32-x)PbO-xBaO were structural units.

  • Numerical Investigation of High-Purity Polarization-Entangled Photon-Pair Generation in Non-Poled KTP Isomorphs
    applied sciences Article Numerical Investigation of High-Purity Polarization-Entangled Photon-Pair Generation in Non-Poled KTP Isomorphs Ilhwan Kim, Donghwa Lee and Kwang Jo Lee * Department of Applied Physics, Institute of Natural Science, Kyung Hee University, Yongin-si 17104, Korea; [email protected] (I.K.); [email protected] (D.L.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: We investigated the high-purity entangled photon-pair generation in five kinds of “non-poled” potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) isomorphs (i.e., KTiOPO4, RbTiOPO4, KTiOAsO4, RbTiOAsO4, and CsTiOAsO4). The technique is based on the spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) under Type II extended phase matching (EPM), where the phase matching and the group velocity matching are simultaneously achieved between the interacting photons in non-poled crystals rather than periodically poled (PP) KTPs that are widely used for quantum experiments. We discussed both theoretically and numerically all aspects required to generate photon pairs in non-poled KTP isomorphs, in terms of the range of the beam propagation direction (or the spectral range of photons) and the corresponding effective nonlinearities and beam walk-offs. We showed that the SPDC efficiency can be increased in non-poled KTP isomorphs by 29% to 77% compared to PPKTP cases. The joint spectral analyses showed that photon pairs can be generated with high purities of 0.995– 0.997 with proper pump filtering. In contrast to the PPKTP case, where the EPM is achieved only at one specific wavelength, the spectral position of photon pairs in the non-poled KTP isomorphs can be chosen over the wide range of 1883.8–2068.1 nm.
