Abstract

The nonlinear-optical coefficients of RCOB (R = Gd, Y) crystals are measured. The spatial distribution of deff (effective nonlinear-optical coefficient) is subsequently determined. Our experiments show that the maximum deff occurs at the second quadrant. The second-harmonic generation efficiency reaches 48% for a 6 mm long, (113.2°, 47.4°)-cut GdCOB, and 41.5% for a 5mm long, (113°, 36.5°)-cut YCOB, respectively. The intracavity frequency doubling of GdCOB is reported for the first time.
