INFLUENCE OF PREPARATION CONDITIONS ON THE MICROSTRUCTURE AND OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF LiNbO3 THIN FILMS

Thin films of Er3+/Yb3+: LiNbO3 were deposited on sapphire (0001) substrates using a spin-coating process. A deposited solution was prepared by a non-aqueous sol-gel method using 2-methoxyethanol, metallic lithium, niobium(V) ethoxide and erbium and ytterbium acetates. Two starting compositions of L...
