Abstract: Nonlinear and quantum optical devices based on periodically-poled thin film lithium niobate (PP-TFLN) have gained considerable interest lately, due to their significantly improved performance as compared to their bulk counterparts. Nevertheless, performance parameters such as conversion efficiency, minimum pump power, and spectral bandwidth strongly depend on the quality of the domain structure in these PP-TFLN samples, e.g., their homogeneity and duty cycle, as well as on the overlap and penetration depth of domains with the waveguide mode. Hence, in order to propose improved fabrication protocols, a profound quality control of domain structures is needed that allows quantifying and thoroughly analyzing these parameters.

For that high temperature ultrasonic transducers are necessary. In the presented paper, a literature review on the main types of such transducers, piezoelectric materials, backings, and the bonding techniques of transducers elements suitable for high temperatures, is presented. In this review, the main focus is on ultrasonic transducers with piezoelectric elements suitable for operation at temperatures higher than of the most commercially available transducers, i.e., 150 ◦C. The main types of the ultrasonic transducers that are discussed are the transducers with thin protectors, which may serve as matching layers, transducers with high temperature delay lines, wedges, and waveguide type transducers. The piezoelectric materi- als suitable for high temperature applications such as aluminum nitride, lithium niobate, gallium orthophosphate, bismuth titanate, oxyborate crystals, lead metaniobate, and other piezoceramics are analyzed. Bonding techniques used for joining of the transducer elements such as joining with glue, soldering,

China (Dated: 27 October 2020) Second harmonic generation (SHG) is a coherent nonlinear phenomenon that plays an important role in laser color conversion. Lithium niobate (LN), which features both a large band gap and outstanding second-order nonlinearities, acts as an important optical material for nonlinear frequency conversion covering a wide spectral range from ultraviolet to mid-infrared. Here we experimentally demonstrate LN metasurfaces with controllable SHG properties. Distinct enhancements for the SHG efficiency are observed at Mie-resonances. And by changing the geometric parameters thus the resonances of the metasurfaces, we manage to selectively boost the SHG efficiency at different wavelengths. Our results would pave a way for developing with high flexibility the novel compact nonlinear light sources for applications, such as biosensing and optical communications. Keywords: Lithium niobate, Metasurface, Second harmonic generation, Resonance Second harmonic generation (SHG) plays a key role diffraction limit.

The success of KTP usage in the visible and infrared (IR) ranges drives interest in applying it at longer wavelengths, that is, in the terahertz (THz) range. We use THz optical properties of KTP crystals measured by terahertz time-domain spectrometer (THz-TDS) and refractive index approximated in the form of Sellmeier equations to investigate KTP application possibilities for IR-to-THz and THz-to-THz wave conversion. As a result, phase matching for s − f ! f and s − f ! s types of difference frequency generation (DFG) of Ti:Sapphire laser (at the wavelengths of 0.65, 0.8 and 1.1 µm) is found possible, as well as second harmonic generation (SHG) of THz waves by f + s ! f type of interaction in the XZ principle plane of the crystal.

California Boulevard, Pasadena, CA 91125, USA 3HyperLight Corporation, 501 Massachusetts Avenue, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139, USA [email protected], [email protected] Lithium niobate (LN), an outstanding and versatile material, has influenced our daily life for decades: from enabling high-speed optical communications that form the backbone of the Internet to realizing radio-frequency filtering used in our cell phones. This half-century-old material is currently embracing a revolution in thin-film LN integrated photonics. The success of manufacturing wafer-scale, high-quality, thin films of LN on insulator (LNOI), accompanied with breakthroughs in nanofabrication techniques, have made high-performance integrated nanophotonic components possible. With rapid development in the past few years, some of these thin-film LN devices, such as optical modulators and nonlinear wavelength converters, have already outperformed their legacy counterparts realized in bulk LN crystals. Furthermore, the nanophotonic integration enabled ultra-low-loss resonators in LN, which unlocked many novel applications such as optical frequency combs and quantum transducers. In this Review, we cover—from basic principles to the state of the art—the diverse aspects of integrated thin- film LN photonics, including the materials, basic passive components, and various active devices based on electro-optics, all-optical nonlinearities, and acousto-optics.

  • Unveiling the Defect Structure of Lithium Niobate with Nuclear Methods
    crystals Review Unveiling the Defect Structure of Lithium Niobate with Nuclear Methods Andreas Kling * and José G. Marques Centro de Ciências e Tecnologias Nucleares, Instituto Superior Técnico, Universidade de Lisboa, Estrada Nacional 10, km 139.7, P-2695-066 Bobadela, Portugal; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +351-219-946-154 Abstract: X-ray and neutron diffraction studies succeeded in the 1960s to determine the principal structural properties of congruent lithium niobate. However, the nature of the intrinsic defects related to the non-stoichiometry of this material remained an object of controversial discussion. In addition, the incorporation mechanism for dopants in the crystal lattice, showing a solubility range from about 0.1 mol% for rare earths to 9 mol% for some elements (e.g., Ti and Mg), stayed unresolved. Various different models for the formation of these defect structures were developed and required experimental verification. In this paper, we review the outstanding role of nuclear physics based methods in the process of unveiling the kind of intrinsic defects formed in congruent lithium niobate and the rules governing the incorporation of dopants. Complementary results in the isostructural compound lithium tantalate are reviewed for the case of the ferroelectric-paraelectric phase transition. We focus especially on the use of ion beam analysis under channeling conditions for the direct determination of dopant lattice sites and intrinsic defects and on Perturbed Angular Correlation measurements probing the local environment of dopants in the host lattice yielding independent and complementary information.

Miller b Martin M. Fejerb Robert L.Byer alflSt of Phys. & App!. Math., Ural State Univ., Ekaterinburg 620083, Russia bEL Ginzton Laboratory, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305-4085 ABSTRACT We present detail investigation of the domain evolution in lithium niobate and lithium tantalate during backswitched electric field poling which allowed to produce micro- and nanoscale domain patterns by application of voltage to lithographically defined strip electrodes. In situ optical observation of the domain kinetics during poling and high-resolution visualization by SEM and SFM of the static domain patterns on polar surfaces and cross-sections have been used. We separated and studied the main stages of domain evolution. The important role of backswitching as a powerfiul tool for high-fidelity domain patterning in thick wafers and for production of quasi-periodic nanoscale domain patterns has been demonstrated. We have proposed several variants of domain manipulation during backswitched poling: the frequency multiplication of the domain patterns, domain "erasing" and "splitting", formation of oriented arrays of nanoscale domains. We have demonstrated the production of lamellar domain patterns with period down to 2.6 microns in 0.5-mm-thick wafers and strictly oriented quasi- periodic domain arrays consisting of the individual nanodomains with diameter down to 30 nm and density up to 100 per square micron. Keywords: domain patterning, backswitchmg, nanotechnology, electric field poling, domain manipulation. 1. INTRODUCTION In recent years rapid development of a new branch of technology named the microdomain engineering raised the questions of fabrication of ferroelectric domain patterns with periods about several microns.

  • Tourmalines and Relaxor Ferroelectrics of The
    Correlations between Crystal Structure and Elastic Properties of Piezoelectric Crystals: Tourmalines and Relaxor Ferroelectrics of the type CaxBa1-xNb2O6 and Ce:CaxBa1-xNb2O6 DISSERTATION zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades eines “Doktor der Naturwissenschaften” an der Fakultät für Geowissenschaften der Ruhr-Universität Bochum Germany von Chandra Shekhar Pandey aus Bareilly (India) Bochum, 2010 1. Gutachter Prof. Dr. Jürgen Schreuer 2. Gutachter Prof. Dr. Ladislav Bohatý Datum der Vorlage 20.10.2010 Datum der Disputation 17.12.2010 “If we knew what we were doing, it wouldn't be research” Albert Einstein This thesis is dedicated to My Love Arti & My sweet ‘n’ cute loving daughter Aditi Abstract In this thesis the elastic properties of two distinct groups of piezoelectric crystals are presented: one is natural tourmaline occurring with a vast variability in chemical compositions with a stable phase over a wide temperature range and hence allowing to examine the influence of chemical composition on its physical properties; while the other is synthetically grown relaxor ferroelectric calcium barium niobate (CBN) exhibiting a ferroelectric-paraelectric phase transition and thus invoking the interest to investigate the variation of elastic properties in both phases as well as in the vicinity of the phase transition. To this end the non-destructive innovative method of resonant ultrasound spectroscopy (RUS) was employed. The full sets of elastic, piezoelectric, dielectric constants and coefficients of thermal expansion of five natural single crystal tourmalines of gem quality have been determined between 100 K and 903 K. The main influence of Li and Fe on elastic, piezoelectric and dielectric properties of tourmalines was studied.

  • Global Lithium Sources—Industrial Use and Future in the Electric Vehicle Industry: a Review
    resources Review Global Lithium Sources—Industrial Use and Future in the Electric Vehicle Industry: A Review Laurence Kavanagh * , Jerome Keohane, Guiomar Garcia Cabellos, Andrew Lloyd and John Cleary EnviroCORE, Department of Science and Health, Institute of Technology Carlow, Kilkenny, Road, Co., R93-V960 Carlow, Ireland; [email protected] (J.K.); [email protected] (G.G.C.); [email protected] (A.L.); [email protected] (J.C.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 28 July 2018; Accepted: 11 September 2018; Published: 17 September 2018 Abstract: Lithium is a key component in green energy storage technologies and is rapidly becoming a metal of crucial importance to the European Union. The different industrial uses of lithium are discussed in this review along with a compilation of the locations of the main geological sources of lithium. An emphasis is placed on lithium’s use in lithium ion batteries and their use in the electric vehicle industry. The electric vehicle market is driving new demand for lithium resources. The expected scale-up in this sector will put pressure on current lithium supplies. The European Union has a burgeoning demand for lithium and is the second largest consumer of lithium resources. Currently, only 1–2% of worldwide lithium is produced in the European Union (Portugal). There are several lithium mineralisations scattered across Europe, the majority of which are currently undergoing mining feasibility studies. The increasing cost of lithium is driving a new global mining boom and should see many of Europe’s mineralisation’s becoming economic. The information given in this paper is a source of contextual information that can be used to support the European Union’s drive towards a low carbon economy and to develop the field of research.
