A prerequisite for these applications is a precise control and understanding of the poling mechanisms to enable the fabrication of high-grade domain grids. In contrast to the widely used material lithium niobate, the domain growth in KTP is less studied, because many standard methods, such as selective etching or polarization microscopy, provides less insight or are not applicable on non-polar surfaces, respectively. In this work, we present results of confocal Raman-spectroscopy of the ferroelectric domain structure in KTP. This analytical method allows for the visualization of domain grids of the non-polar KTP y-face and therefore more insight into the domain-growth and -structure in KTP, which can be used for improved domain fabrication.</jats:p>}},

  abstract     = {{Nonlinear and quantum optical devices based on periodically-poled thin film lithium niobate (PP-TFLN) have gained considerable interest lately, due to their significantly improved performance as compared to their bulk counterparts. Nevertheless, performance parameters such as conversion efficiency, minimum pump power, and spectral bandwidth strongly depend on the quality of the domain structure in these PP-TFLN samples, e.g., their homogeneity and duty cycle, as well as on the overlap and penetration depth of domains with the waveguide mode. Hence, in order to propose improved fabrication protocols, a profound quality control of domain structures is needed that allows quantifying and thoroughly analyzing these parameters. In this paper, we propose to combine a set of nanometer-to-micrometer-scale imaging techniques, i.e., piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM), second-harmonic generation (SHG), and Raman spectroscopy (RS), to access the relevant and crucial sample properties through cross-correlating these methods. Based on our findings, we designate SHG to be the best-suited standard imaging technique for this purpose, in particular when investigating the domain poling process in x-cut TFLNs. While PFM is excellently recommended for near-surface high-resolution imaging, RS provides thorough insights into stress and/or defect distributions, as associated with these domain structures. In this context, our work here indicates unexpectedly large signs for internal fields occurring in x-cut PP-TFLNs that are substantially larger as compared to previous observations in bulk LN.}},

Comparably, the parental compound, i.e., undoped SBN, appears to be less studied so far.

We present conductance measurements under systematically varied illumination conditions along either the polar z-axis or perpendicular to it (x-cut). Apart from a pronounced photoconductance (PC) already under daylight and a large effect upon super-bandgap illumination in general, we observe (i) distinct spectral features when sweeping the excitation wavelength over the sub-bandgap region as then discussed in the context of deep and shallow trap states, (ii) extremely slow long-term relaxation for both light-on and light-off transients in the range of hours and days, (iii) a critical dependence of the photoresponse on the pre-illumination history of the sample, and (iv) a current–voltage hysteresis depending on both the illumination and the electrical-measurement conditions in a complex manner.}},

Here, we investigate the coherent interaction length lc of optical second-harmonic generation (SHG) microscopy in such samples, that are purposely prepared into a wedge shape, in order to elegantly tune the geometrical confinement from bulk thicknesses down to approximately 50 nm. SHG microscopy is a very powerful and non-invasive tool for the investigation of structural properties in the biological and solid-state sciences, especially for visualizing and analyzing ferroelectric domains and domain walls. However, unlike in bulk lithium niobate (LN), SHG microscopy in TFLN is impacted by interfacial reflections and resonant enhancement, both of which rely on film thickness and substrate material. In this paper, we show that the dominant SHG contribution measured on TFLN in backreflection is the co-propagating phase-matched SHG signal and not the counter-propagating SHG portion as is the case for bulk LN samples. Moreover, lc depends on the incident pump laser wavelength (sample dispersion) but also on the numerical aperture of the focussing objective in use. These experimental findings on x- and z-cut TFLN are excellently backed up by our advanced numerical simulations.}},

When applying polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography (PS-OCT) at 1300 nm using circular light polarization, we are able to probe the relevant electro-optical properties close to and at the DWs, including also their ordinary and extraordinary contributions.

B-CARS allows for the detection of vibrational sample properties in analogy to spontaneous Raman spectroscopy, but also makes electronic sample environments accessible due to its resonant excitation mechanism. Nevertheless, this technique has only gained interest in the biomedical field so far, whereas CARS investigations on solid-state materials are rare and concentrate on layered, two-dimensional materials such as graphene and hexagonal boron nitride . In this work, we discuss the specific properties of this technique when applied to single-crystalline samples, with respect to signal generation, phase matching, and selection rules in the model systems lithium niobate and lithium tantalate. Via polarized B-CARS measurements and subsequent phase retrieval, we validate the predicted selection rules, unequivocally assign the phonons of the A1(TO), E(TO) and A1(LO) branches to the detected CARS peaks, and address differences in spontaneous Raman spectroscopy concerning peak frequencies and scattering efficiencies. We thus establish this technique for future investigations of solid-state materials, specifically in the field of ferroelectric single crystals.}},

  abstract     = {{Thin film lithium niobate has been of great interest recently, and an understanding of periodically poled thin films is crucial for both fundamental physics and device developments. Second-harmonic (SH) microscopy allows for the noninvasive visualization and analysis of ferroelectric domain structures and walls. While the technique is well understood in bulk lithium niobate, SH microscopy in thin films is largely influenced by interfacial reflections and resonant enhancements, which depend on film thicknesses and substrate materials. We present a comprehensive analysis of SH microscopy in x-cut lithium niobate thin films, based on a full three-dimensional focus calculation and accounting for interface reflections. We show that the dominant signal in backreflection originates from a copropagating phase-matched process observed through reflections, rather than direct detection of the counterpropagating signal as in bulk samples. We simulate the SH signatures of domain structures by a simple model of the domain wall as an extensionless transition from a −χ(2) to a +χ(2) region. This allows us to explain the main observation of domain structures in the thin-film geometry, and, in particular, we show that the SH signal from thin poled films allows to unambiguously distinguish areas, which are completely or only partly inverted in depth.}},

  abstract     = {{Mach-Zehnder electro-optic modulators (EOM) based on thin-film lithium niobate bonded to a silicon photonic waveguide circuit have been shown to achieve very high modulation bandwidths. Open eye-diagram measurements made in the time domain of beyond-small-signal modulation are used to support the modulation-sideband measurements in showing that such EOM’s can support high-frequency modulations well beyond 100 GHz.}},
