Abstract :
We fabricated high-quality domain inverted MgO: LiNbO3 structures with 3.0 and 2.0 μm period using applying voltage to the corrugation electrode. We found that keeping the crystal temperature at 150°C for 12 hours before applying voltage was effective for obtaining good uniformity. We also demonstrated application to electro-optic Bragg deflection modulator.
