Abstract :
KGd(PO3)4 (hereafter KGdP) is a promising bifunctional crystal, in which the laser emission and a nonlinear optical process can occur simultaneously. This paper presents evaluation of its thermal properties, such as linear thermal expansion, thermal conductivity, and thermal diffusivity and anisotropy.
