Laser ablation of atoms, ions and molecules from LiNbO3

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Lithium niobate is one of the workhorses of nonlinear optics technology, widely used for frequency up-conversion, acousto-optic devices,1 and optical switching.2 In these applications, high-intensity laser-induced damage to the LiNbO3 surface is a natural concern. Also, because LiNbO3 is not easily processed by chemical or mechanical means, lasers are being used3 for micromachining and direct writing in optoelectronic circuits.4
