Electrical and optical properties ofLiNbO3single crystals at room temperature

Abstract: The electrical and optical properties of lithium niobate (LiNbO 3 ) at room temperature are theoretically calculated by using a microscopic model based on the orbital approximation in correlation with the dipoledipole interaction. It is found that both the electronic polarizabilities and the electronic hyperpolarizabilities have to be considered in this calculation in order to match both the spontaneous polarization and refractive indices with experimental data.

“…The model was previously tested in this version for the calculation of bulk properties of single-domain tetragonal BaTiO 3 like the ferroelectricity and optical anisotropy, as well as the linear electro-optical coefficients [36,37]. Furthermore the same model was successfully applied for modelling electric and optical properties of LiNbO 3 single crystals [38], and also within 180 • ferroelectric domain walls in BaTiO 3 [39]. Based on those experiences which agree excellently well with the corresponding experimental data, we initiate here the application of this model to the more complicated 90 • ferroelectric domain wall in BaTiO 3 at room temperature.…”

“…5,[12][13][14][15] In recent years, LNO has been intensively investigated as an important ferroelectric material owing to its high spontaneous polarization of 0.70 C m −2 and high Curie temperature of 1210 °C. [16][17][18] The DWC property has been intensively studied in single-crystal LNO films for the preparation of memristors. 8,10,19) An on/off ratio as high as 10 12 has been reached by the single-crystal LNO memristor.…”

“…The values of second-order and third-order elastic constants, given in Table 2 and Table 4 respectively, are substituted in equation (12) to get the pressure derivatives of the secondorder elastic constants of LiNbO 3. The values thus obtained are given in Table 5 Table 4 …”

“…LiNbO 3 finds its application also in the field of holographic imaging, optical waveguides and modern optical parametric oscillators [8][9][10] . Its large spontaneous polarization and non linear optical activity make it favorite in the thermal, electrical and optical areas 11,12 . Its superior piezoelectric performance makes it a potential candidate for replacing quartz.…”
