摘要：
The nonlinear refractive indices of Yb3+: KY(WO4)(2) and Yb3+:YVO4 laser crystals are characterized using a Z-scan technique at a wavelength of 1.08 mu m for different polarizations. The results reveal that the nonlinear refractive index of Yb3+:YVO4 is superior to that of Yb3+:KY(WO4)(2) and is found to be 1.9x10(-15) cm(2)/W and 1.5x10(-15) cm(2)/W for E perpendicular to c and E parallel to c polarizations, respectively.
