TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss burial diagenesis and especially a burial dissolution phase and its effects on micrite microtexture in reservoirs in the Middle East, and three typical microtextures are distinguished: micro-rhombic, compact anhedral, and rounded.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied gray-tracking induced by a pulsed and polarized 532-nm laser beam in flux grown KTiOPO/sub 4/ (KTP) crystals.

TL;DR: In this article, the absolute magnitude of the quadratic effective coefficients of phase-matched second-harmonic generation from conversion efficiency measurements in a single nonlinear crystal cut as a sphere was determined within an accuracy of ∼10% with measurements performed in thin parallelepipedal samples.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the sphere method for direct measurement of sum and difference-frequency generation phase matched in the principal planes of KTiOAsO4, RbTiOAAsO 4, and CsTiOASOA4, including the tuning curves of 1.064 µm-pumped OPO's emitting between 3 and 5 µm.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a methodology for the measurement of quadratic nonlinear optical properties of crystals, mainly based on the use of the spherical geometry which allows, with only one crystal, accurate measurements of the phase-matching directions and the associated angular acceptances, double-refraction angles and effective coefficients.
