Abstract

KDP crystals were grown at growth rates from 5.0 to 19.0 mm/d. Transmittance, laser damage threshold and light scatter were detected. It has been shown that laser damage thresholds of KDP crystals decrease with the increase of the absorption coefficients. Large-scale impurity is an important factor that causes light absorption in UV range and reduces the damage threshold.
