Scattering loss due to dislocations in LiNdP/sub 4/O/sub 12/ laser crystals is evaluated by positional change of laser output power. Two 5-mm-thick LiNdP/sub 4/O/sub 12/ crystals having different dislocation density profiles are examined. There is no correlation between dislocation density and laser output power up to a dislocation density of 10/sup 5//cm/sup 2/.
