Optofluidic applications with lithium niobate nanowires
We report the hydrothermal synthesis of free-standing lithium niobate nanowires. We show that the versatile properties of bulk lithium niobate such as nonlinear optical effects can be exploited at the nanoscale. We describe the fabrication of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microfluidics as well as indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes with different design for dedicated applications. The control of mi...
متن کاملNiobates Nanowires: Synthesis, Characterization and Applications
Perovskite oxides such as alkaline niobates crystal possess many interesting properties including piezoelectricity, pyroelectricity, electro-optic and nonlinear optical response (Bhalla et al., 2000). The most common alkaline niobates material is lithium niobate (LiNbO3). Since the discovery of LiNbO3 ferroelectricity (Matthias & Remeika, 1949), its properties are widely exploited by electronic...
متن کاملAlkaline niobate nanowires as opto-mechanical probes
ABSTRACT Perovskite alkaline niobate (XNbO3) nanowires are attracting lots of attention having a variety of interesting properties such as significant nonlinear optical response, pronounced birefringence, considerable piezoelectric, pyroelectric, photorefractive, and photocatalytic response, as well as superior mechanical and chemical stability. Their ability to efficiently generate second harm...
متن کاملOptimized Digital Optical Switch Using Proton Exchanged Lithium Niobate Waveguides
The main emphasis in developing DOS has been on achieving low crosstalk (CT). CT in the order of -30 dB is acceptable in conventional DOS and below that value is hard to achieve. Relatively low drive voltage (or power requirements) is also necessary to optimized DOS. This paper depicts the design of Y-branched digital optical switches (DOS) with optimized on-chip area coverage, reduced driving ...
متن کاملHydrothermal Synthesis, Characterization, Optical Properties of Lithium Meta- and Disilicate Nanomaterials and Theoretical Calculations
Highly crystalline and pure lithium metasilicate (Li2SiO3) and lithium disilicate (Li2Si2O5) nanomaterials were synthesized by hydrothermal method and characterized by PXRD technique. The changes in the morphology and particle size of the synthesized nanomaterials with reaction time were investigated using SEM technique. The UV-Vis and photoluminescence spectra of the compounds were studied. Th...
