Dielectric properties of a polar ZnSnO{sub 3} with LiNbO{sub 3}-type structure

The dielectric properties of a polar LiNbO{sub 3}-type ZnSnO{sub 3} synthesized under high-pressure have been investigated with respect to the dielectric permittivity in the relative low frequency range of 10 kHz to 1 MHz and the SHG response at an optical frequency. The small temperature dependence...

Description
Summary:The dielectric properties of a polar LiNbO{sub 3}-type ZnSnO{sub 3} synthesized under high-pressure have been investigated with respect to the dielectric permittivity in the relative low frequency range of 10 kHz to 1 MHz and the SHG response at an optical frequency. The small temperature dependence of dielectric permittivity without anomaly was observed in the temperature range of 300 K to 780 K. LiNbO{sub 3}-type ZnSnO{sub 3} exhibits the maximum SHG efficiency of approximately 50 times that of quartz. We then compare the structure and SHG response with those of iso-structural LiNbO{sub 3} and other known LiNbO{sub 3}-type oxides. It was found that the magnitude of SHG response is correlated to the magnitude of intra-octahedral distortion, which is effectively brought by the second-order Jahn-Teller effect. - Graphical abstract: A polar LiNbO{sub 3} (LN)-type ZnSnO{sub 3} exhibits the maximum second harmonic generation (SHG) efficiency of approximately 50 times that of quartz. The magnitude of SHG response in LN-type oxides, ABO{sub 3} is correlated to the magnitude of intra-octahedral distortion.
