Abstract

Several transition metal phosphates of the general formula KM0.5M'0.5OPO4, where M = NbV or TaV and M' = TiIII, VIII, CrIII, FeIII, possessing the KTiOPO4 (KTP) structure have been synthesized. Unlike KTP, none of these phosphates exhibit second harmonic generation (SHG) of the 1064-nm radiation. Soft-chemical oxidation of the TiIII and VIII phosphates using chlorine in CHCl3, however, restores the SHG property to the oxidized materials, K0.5M0.5M'0.5OPO4 (M = NbV, TaV; M' = TiIV, VIV). K1-x Ti1-xVxOPO4 (x ≤ 0.25) prepared similarly from KTi1-xVxOPO4 also exhibit SHG. The results reveal that exclusive presence of d0 cations at the TiIV site preserves the SHG response of KTP derivatives.
