Abstract

Transparent conductive coatings of indium tin oxide have been deposited onto KD*P crystals using an ion-assisted deposition process. Three devices have been fabricated with gold rings for electrical contacting. The devices have been tested optically and electrically, and the damage thresholds of the coatings have been measured. A device was used as the Q-switch in a pulsed Nd:YLF laser.
