Lithium Niobate (LN) tioata o loʻo i ai le polarization maualuga maualuga (0.70 C / m² i le vevela potu) ma o se tioata ferroelectric ma le maualuga Curie vevela (1210 ℃) maua i le taimi nei. LN tioata e lua uiga e tosina mai ai le gauai faapitoa. Muamua, o loʻo i ai le tele o aʻafiaga o le photoelectric, e aofia ai le piezoelectric effect, electro-optic effect, nonlinear optical effect, photorefractive effect, photovoltaic effect, photoelastic effect, acoustooptic effect ma isi mea photoelectric. Lona lua, o le faʻatinoga o le tioata LN e sili ona fetuutuunai, lea e mafua mai i le fausaga lattice ma le tele o faʻaletonu o le LN tioata. O le tele o meatotino o le tioata LN e mafai ona faʻatulafonoina tele e ala i tioata faʻapipiʻi, elemene doping, valence state control ma isi. E le gata i lea, o le tioata LN e mauoa i mea mataʻutia, o lona uiga o le maualuga ma le tele-tele tioata tasi e faigofie lava ona saunia.

O le tioata LN o loʻo i ai mea faʻapitoa faʻaletino ma vailaʻau, faigofie ona faʻagasolo, lautele lautele faʻasalalauga (0.3 ~ 5).μm), ma e iai se birefringence tele (e uiga i le 0.8 @ 633 nm), ma faigofie ona faia i luga o le tulaga maualuga opitika waveguide. O le mea lea, o le LN-based optoelectronic masini, faʻataʻitaʻiga o luga o le acoustic wave filter, light modulator, phase modulator, optical isolator, electro-optic Q-switch (www.wisoptic.com), o loʻo suʻesuʻeina lautele ma faʻaoga i vaega nei: tekinolosi faaeletonika. , tekinolosi feso'ota'iga mata, tekonolosi laser. Talu ai nei, faʻatasi ai ma faʻalavelave i le faʻaogaina o le 5G, micro / nano photonics, integrated photonics ma quantum optics, LN tioata ua toe tosina atu i ai le lautele. I le 2017, Burrows o le Iunivesite o Harvard e oʻo lava i le faʻatulagaina o le vaitau o“vanu lithium niobate” ua sau nei.
