Reactive Ion Etching of X-Cut LiNbO<sub>3</sub> in an ICP/TCP System for the Fabrication of an Optical Ridge Waveguide

In this study, the technology for producing ridge waveguides with a minimal roughness of the sidewalls and material surface in a near-waveguide region was developed with the purpose of fabricating miniature photonic integrated circuits on a LiNbO<sub>3</sub> substrate. Plasma etching pro...
