To illustrate diffusion, B-site cation movement into lithium niobate, LiNbOj, is described. This material has important optical properties (Chapter 9) and is employed in optical amplifiers, lasers and waveguides. However, the lithium niobate crystals suffer from optical damage when transmitting visible and near-infrared wavelengths. It has been found that B-site doping of surface layers can effectively reduce such damage, and there have been numerous studies on the diffusion of suitable cations such as TT", Zr, Er and Tm, either in isolation or as co-diffusants, into crystals of LiNbOj.

The excellent transmittance of quartz in the near-infrared range has led to a further enhancement of the potential of near-infrared spectroscopy by the introduction of fiber optics. Fiber-optic waveguides are used to transfer light from the spectrometer to the sample and. after transmission or reflection, back to the spectrometer. Most fiber optic cables consist of three concentric compo-...
