$Nd_2O_3$0.2~0.5 wt.% doped $LiNbO_3$single crystals were grown by the Czochralski method. The ZnO doping by 2~8 mole% can improve the resistance of optical damage. In this study, Nd : LiNbO$_3$ single crystals with the periodical domain structure were obtained by CZ method.

The MgO-doped LiNbO$_3$ single crystals were grown along c-axis by the Czochralski method with the pulling rate of 3mm/h and the rotation of 10rpm. The MgO contents were form 1 to 4 mole%. The SHG properties were investigated with the pulsed Nd:YAG laser, and thermo-optic coefficient, electro-optic coefficient of birefringence and curie temperature were measured. Phase matching temperature and Curie temperature increase similarly with MgO content until 4 mole%.
