Nominally pure and doped with zinc in a wide concentration range lithium niobate crystals were studied using photoinduced light scattering. Using the parameters of photo-induced scattered light, we determined the values of the photovoltaic and diffusion field intensities in lithium niobate crystals of different compositions. It was found that the values of thephotoelectric field strengths depend on the state of the defect structure of the crystals.
