Abstract
A nonlinear optical single crystal, l-arginine monohydrobromide monohydrate (LAHBr), has been implanted with 100 keV H+ ions at different ion fluences ranging from 1012 to 1015 ions/cm2 to study the property changes after implantation. Crystalline perfection of the pristine and implanted LAHBr crystals was analyzed using high-resolution X-ray diffraction. The refractive index, birefringence, mechanical stability, dielectric constant and optical absorption bands induced by color centers of the implanted crystals were studied at different ion fluences and compared with pristine LAHBr single crystals.
