The dispersion relation of the A 1 phonon-polariton of ferroelectric LiNbO 3 has been studied by the impulsive stimulated Raman scattering (ISRS) experiment improved with optical phase masks and heterodyne detection. A simple dispersion relation is revealed in contrast to the previous heterodyne ISRS study where several avoided crossing points were reported. The static dielectric constant obtained from the gradient of the dispersion curve with respect to the wave vector shows a good agreement with the previous dielectric measurement.
