Abstract
Crystals of compounds of the type (RE).sub.x Y.sub.1-x Al.sub.3 (BO.sub.3).sub.4 where (RE) is a rare-earth element or absent (x=O) are optically uniaxially negative and show the linear electrooptical effect and the nonlinear optical effect. They are useful as modulators and as nonlinear optical devices such as second harmonic generators, parametric oscillators and amplifiers, and the like.
