The present invention relates to a novel optoelectronic functional material, and its growth method and use, particularly to a nonlinear optical crystalline material and its preparation process and use, namely, fluorine boron beryllium salt, specifically, ammonium beryllium borate fluoride, whose chemical formula is NH4Be2BO3F2 (abbreviated as ABBF) and beryllium borate fluoride, whose chemical formula is Be2BO3F (abbreviated as BBF).
The nonlinear optical effect of a crystal refers to the effect that: when a laser beam having a specific polarization direction passes through a piece of nonlinear optical crystal (such as a borate nonlinear optical crystal) in a specific incident direction, the beam will have its frequency changed.
Crystal with nonlinear optical effect is named as nonlinear optical crystal. The use of nonlinear optical crystal for laser frequency conversion, broadening the range of the laser wavelength, thus laser is more widely used. In particular, borate nonlinear optical crystals such as BaB2O4 (BBO), LiB3O5 (LBO), KBe2BO3F2 (KBBF), Sr2Be2B2O7 (SBBO), Ba2Be2B2O7 (TBO), K2Al2B2O7 (KABO), BaAl2B2O7 (BABO) have drawn much attention for their excellent optical properties. In fields such as optical photography, photolithography and precision instrument processing, there is an increasing need for UV and deep UV laser coherent light sources, that is, there is need for UV and deep UV nonlinear optical crystals with excellent properties.
The basic structural motif of BBO crystal is (B3O6)3− planar group, which has a large conjugated π bond, so that BBO has the UV absorption edge of about 189 nm, thus the crystal's application in the UV region is limited. Further, the large conjugated π bond will also result in a relatively large birefringence (Δn=0.12), thereby limiting its harmonic conversion efficiency and the quality of harmonic light.
The basic structural motif of KBBF is the (BO3)3− planar group. This crystal has a UV absorption edge of about 155 nm and a moderate birefringence (Δn=0.07), and can achieve a wide range of phase matching. So far, it is the best deep UV nonlinear optical crystal. However, since KBBF is a crystal of layered structure and the layers are linked with each other by electrostatic attraction but not by valence bonds, the crystal has serious layered habit and very slow growth in the z direction, the grown single crystals are obviously layered, and the crystals are not easy to grow.
SBBO also has (BO3)3− planar group as the basic structural motif, but it replaces fluorine ion with oxygen, so that the layers are linked with each other by oxygen bridges, thereby improving the layered habit of KBBF, while the structure of each layer remains basically unchanged. SBBO not only has a relatively large macroscopic frequency doubling coefficient, a low UV absorption edge (165 nm), and a moderate birefringence (Δn=0.06), but also completely overcomes the layered habit of crystal and solves the problem of crystal growth. Based on this, a series of nonlinear optical crystals such as TBO, KABO and BABO have been successively prepared by replacing the cation Sr2+ and Be atom while maintaining the structural condition of the (BO3)3− group substantially unchanged. They are collectively referred to as SBBO family crystals. They have overcome the layered habit of KBBF single crystals in growing, but these crystals have so far not been able to replace KBBF single crystals. That is because the SBBO and TBO crystals have poor structural integrity, their macroscopic properties reveal very poor optical uniformity, and so far they have not been able to be applied in practical devices; the KABO and BABO crystals have very good structural integrity and good optical uniformity, but since Al replaces Be, their absorption edge is red shifted to about 180 nm and are hard to be used in deep UV harmonic output.
The basic structural motif of LBO is (B3O7)5− group formed by conversion of one B atom in the (B3O6)3− group from the tri-coordination to the tetra-coordination. It has a relatively large frequency doubling coefficient and a UV absorption edge of about 160 nm. However, the (B3O7)5− groups in the actual crystals are linked to each other, a helical chain of 45° to the z axis is formed in the space, so that parallel arrangement in lattice cannot be achieved, thus the crystal has the birefringence decreased to an overly low point (Δn=0.04-0.05), thereby severely limiting its phase matching range in the UV region and not giving full play to the advantage of wide bandgap.
Thus, novel UV and deep UV nonlinear optical crystals with excellent performance in all aspects are yet to be developed.
