Abstract

Fractal analysis is used to study patterns of photo-induced light scattering in stoichiometric LiNbO3 single crystals and in a series of LiNbO3:Zn (0.018–0.88 wt %) single crystals. It is found that the concentration of laser-induced defects depends on that of Zn, and that energy is redistributed between the layers of laser-induced scattering.
