Concentration of crystal violet dye on the growth, optical, photo- luminescence and laser damage threshold properties of potassium acid phthalate single crystal
Abstract
Influence of crystal violet dye with different ratio (0.1 mol%,0.3 mol% and 0.5 mol%) on potassium acid phthalate single crystal by conventional method has been studied. Dye inclusion crystals have attracted researchers in the context of crystal growth for applications in solid state lasers. The grown crystal is subjected to optical, photoluminescence and laser damage study to explore its suitability for the solid state dye laser applications.
