Temperature dispersion in ADP, KDP, and KD*P for nonlinear devices

Lack of proper temperature dispersion data prevented many experimenters from interpreting tuning curves for various parametric interactions using KDP, KD*P, and ADP. We present here a formulation to present temperature dispersion which can predict accurately the temperature dependence in phase-matching behavior of such crystals.
