Problems solved by technology

The self-assembly technology based on pulsed light irradiation can realize micro-domain structures with a width of less than 100 nm, but the domain structure is in a disordered state, so high-quality micro-domain structures cannot be prepared
The micro-domain structure prepared by the back inversion technology is a quasi-regular array structure in the crystal Y direction, and the continuity is poor
Green light direct writing technology can be used to prepare high-quality micro-domain structures, but the structure is a surface domain with a depth of only tens of nanometers, which has no practical application
However, the periodic domain structure with a period of ~1 μm can be prepared by using multi-pulse polarization technology, but the sides of the micro-domain structure are not smooth, and the quality is poor, which is easy to cause strong light scattering.

preparation example Construction

[0028] The preparation method of the lithium niobate crystal nano-domain structure provided by the present invention is mainly divided into three steps: first, constructing a domain wall structure in the lithium niobate crystal; second, heat-treating the sample; third, performing two steps on the sample secondary polarization. Specifically, the following steps are included:

[0029] Step (1): Polarized regions with opposite polarization directions are constructed in the lithium niobate crystal by using a polarization technique, thereby forming a domain wall structure in the lithium niobate crystal.

[0030] Step (2): placing the lithium niobate crystal in a high-temperature furnace for heat treatment.

[0031] Step (3): performing secondary polarization on the heat-treated lithium niobate crystal.
