Download or read book Ferroelectric Thin-film Waveguides in Integrated Optics and Optoelectronics written by A. M. Prokhorov and published by Cambridge International Science Publishing. This book was released on 1996 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Methods of producing thin-film structures are discussed. Special attention is given to liquid-phase epitaxy from a limited melt bulk with and without application of an electric field. A method is described which combines liquid-phase and diffusion techniques for obtaining structures with a specific configuration of waveguide channels. The physico-chemical properties of thin ferroelectric layers, such as morphology, the domain structure of the transition layer and ferroelectric properties are examined. Important role in applying electro-optic modulators, deflectors and transducers is played by optical properties, mode composition of propagating radiation, second harmonic generation, electro-optic properties, photorefraction, destruction threshold and light loss.
