Lithium Niobate
Description
Lithium niobate - LiNbO3 is a useful material for optoelectronics. Many technologies are based on this material which has unique piezo-electric, optical and photoelastic properties while exhibiting mechanical and chemical stability. The combination of excellent electro-optical, acousto-optical and non linear optical properties make an attractive host material for application in integrated optics.
