Large-area regular nanodomain patterning in He-irradiated lithium niobate crystals.
Large-area ferroelectric nanodomain patterns, which are desirable for nonlinear optical applications, were generated in previously He-implanted lithium niobate crystals by applying voltage pulses to the tip of a scanning force microscope. The individual nanodomains were found to be of uniform size, which depended only on the inter-domain spacing and the pulse amplitude. We explain this behavior...
متن کاملFemtosecond holography in lithium niobate crystals.
Spatial gratings are recorded holographically by two femtosecond pump pulses at 388 nm in lithium niobate (LiNbO3) crystals and read out by a Bragg-matched, temporally delayed probe pulse at 776 nm. We claim, to our knowledge, the first holographic pump-probe experiments with subpicosecond temporal resolution for LiNbO3. An instantaneous grating that is due mostly to the Kerr effect as well as ...
متن کاملX-ray-induced conductivity in iron-doped lithium niobate crystals
Illumination of photorefractive, iron-doped lithium niobate crystals (LiNbO3 :Fe) with x-rays generates a conductivity that we determine from the speed of hologram erasure. The doping levels of the crystals and the acceleration voltage of our x-ray tube are varied. A theoretical model is presented, which describes the obtained results. A decrease of the conductivity with increasing Fe concentra...

متن کاملPoling-inhibited ridge waveguides in lithium niobate crystals
Ultraviolet laser irradiation of a lithium niobate +z polar surface enables the production of ridge waveguides. Ultraviolet laser induced inhibition of poling is used to define an inverted domain pattern which transforms into a ridge structure by differential etching in Hydrofluoric acid. The laser irradiation step also induces a refractive index change that provides the vertical confinement wi...
