Figure 4

(a) The transmittance spectrum of the KLa(PO3)4 crystal in the VUV region. The inset presents the measured crystal and the transmittance spectra in the UV-vis-NIR and mid far-infrared regions. (b) Phase-matching data points with respect to particle size for the KLa(PO3)4 polycrystalline powder in addition to KDP as a reference at 1064 nm. The drawn curves serve to guide the eye and do not represent a fit to the data. The inset presents the second-harmonic generation of pulsed Nd:YAG laser radiation on the as-grown KLa(PO3)4 crystal.
