  • Abstract
    The authors report a novel method for fabricating proton exchanged LiNbO3 ridge waveguides by the wet etching of proton-exchanged LiNbO3. To demonstrate a simple and easy application of the LiNbO3 ridge waveguide, a Mach-Zehnder interferometric modulator with selfaligned electrode was fabricated
