The specific features of photorefractive light scattering in nominally pure stoichiometric (Li/Nb = 1) sin- gle crystals grown from a melt with 58.6 mol % Li{sub 2}O (LiNbO{sub 3}st) and in the stoichiometric single crystals grown from a melt of congruent composition in the presence of K{sub 2}O flux (LiNbO{sub 3}stK{sub 2}O) have been investi- gated. At an excitation power of 30 mW, LiNbO{sub 3}stK{sub 2}O single crystals are found to exhibit a stronger photo- refractive effect than LiNbO{sub 3}st single crystals.
