Abstract

In this paper we represent the results of investigations of a UV-induced nonlinear absorption in BBO crystals and its influence on frequency conversion. The assumption that in BBO crystal at two-photon absorption of law intensive radiation < 100 MW/cm² at 266 nm dynamic color-centers are generated. With the help of computational modeling it was defined that the absorption cross section of dynamic color-centers at 266 nm is equal to approximately 8 X 10^-17.
