STRUCTURAL PHASE TRANSITIONS IN PROTON EXCHANGED LAYERS OF LITHIUM NIOBATE CRYSTALS DURING ANNEALING
Lithium niobate crystals are widely used in the manufacturing of integrated optical phase and intensity modulators. The production method is based on the formation of optical waveguides in the surface layers of LiNbO3 by means of proton exchange. Subsequent annealing of proton-exchanged structures...
