*** ABSTRACT 96-60638 Tsveybak This Small Business Innovation Research Phase I program will develop a new crystal growth process for AgGaS2 single crystals. The excellent nonlinear and optical transmission properties of AgGaS2 make it a unique material for an optical parametric oscillator that can be pumped by a 1.06 (m laser to provide laser radiation continuously tunable from 2.5 to 10 (m. The very promising potential for AgGaS2 crystals for this application has not yet been realized because commercially available crystals are too costly, take too long to produce, and are limited in size. A new crystal growth process for AgGaS2 will be developed during this Phase I effort that will overcome these limitations. An infrared laser source continuously tunable from 2.5 to 10 (m will play an important role in environmental monitoring for chemical species, spectroscopy, microelectronics manufacturing, and optical spectrometers. ***

* 摘要 96-60638 Tsveybak 该小型企业创新研究第一阶段计划将开发AgGaS 2单晶的新晶体生长工艺。AgGaS_2具有优良的非线性和光学传输特性，是一种独特的光参量振荡器材料，可被1.06 μ m激光泵浦，产生2.5 ~ 10 μ m连续可调的激光辐射。AgGaS 2晶体用于该应用的非常有前途的潜力尚未实现，因为商业上可获得的晶体太昂贵，生产时间太长，并且尺寸有限。一个新的晶体生长过程中AgGaS 2将在第一阶段的努力，将克服这些限制。 在2.5 ~ 10 μ m范围内连续可调谐的红外激光光源将在化学物种的环境监测、光谱学、微电子制造和光谱仪中发挥重要作用。***
