Abstract:
Sixth-harmonic generation of the Nd:YAG laser frequency at 1.0642 μm has been achieved in KB(5) O(8) ˙ 4H(2) O by type-1 mixing the fundamental and fifth harmonic at room temperature. The phase-matching angles were measured to be (θ = 90°, φ = 68.5 ± 0.5°) and (θ = 80.0 ± 0.5 °, φ = 90°) in the x - y and y -z planes, respectively. Improved Sellmeier equations of this crystal are presented.

The absorbance of UV and visible (UV–visible) radiations is measured using a UV–visible spectrophotometer. Deuterium lamps, which emit UV radiation, and tungsten lamps, which produce radiation in the visible region, are used as light sources in UV–visible spectrophotometers. A monochromator or prism is used for diffraction grating, i.e., to split the incoming radiation into different wavelengths. A system of slits is used to focus the desired wavelength on the sample cell. Samples for...
01:32UV–Vis Spectroscopy of Conjugated Systems
Organic compounds with conjugated double bonds show strong absorption features in the UV–visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum attributed to π → π* electronic excitations. Generally, a UV–vis absorption spectrum is recorded as a plot of absorbance vs wavelength. The wavelength of maximum absorbance, which manifests as a peak in the absorption spectrum, is denoted as λmax.
One of the factors influencing λmax is the extent of conjugation in the...
