Abstract

A new method for determing the second‐harmonic‐generation coefficient d_ijk and the linear electro‐optic term r_ijk as well as their relative sign from oblique phonon Raman‐scattering experiments is introduced. This method is applicable to piezoelectric crystals of orthorhombic or higher symmetry, where the oblique phonon cross section can be measured. The value of d₁₃ and r₁₃ for LiIO₃ were determined.
