Electrooptic coefficient of CsLiB6O10 crystals has been experimentally determined as r63=3.3*10-12m/V. The half-wave voltage for CsLiB6O10 (Ul/2=26 kV) is three orders of magnitude larger than that of the known KDP crystals.

PACS: 78.20.Jq, 42.60.Gd
Key words: electrooptic effect, half-wave voltage, borate crystals
