Description

The method of LiNbO_3 film nanometer-scale periodic polarization
Technical field
The present invention relates to the technology of a kind of photoelectron, optical communication field, is specifically that one kind is made using nano impression The method that electrode realizes the polarization of LiNbO_3 film nanometer-scale periodic.
Background technology
Lithium niobate monocrystal film equally has important application in integrated nonlinear optics and device.Have at present more Kind technology can realize ferroelectricity periodical poling, such as the induction of electric field polarization method, femtosecond laser, AFM electricity on lithium niobate monocrystal film The methods of polarization and electron-beam direct writing.Femtosecond laser induction, AFM electric polarization and direct electronic beam writing technology can prepare micron And nanoscale domain inversion structures.The polarization pattern of complexity can be prepared by point by point scanning, but the speed of preparation structure but has Limit.Prepare large area structure and consuming time length, the inferior position of lack of homogeneity be present, be unsuitable for the polarization structure for preparing large area. Traditional electric polarization realizes that periodical poling but has many good qualities:Cycle can accomplish very little, can be carried out in room temperature and repeatability is fine. Room temperature electrical-poling method is quite ripe, and this is also the technology used when prepared by commercial periodic polarized crystal.But by broadening The limitation of effect, the domain structure of large period can only be prepared using electric field polarization method, it is difficult to directly prepare nanoscale periodical poling knot Structure.Conventional polar method is primarily limited to the preparation method of polarization comb electrode and the limitation of lithium niobate crystal body thickness.Prepare Sub-micron domain inversion structures need deep-UV lithography or electron beam lithography to prepare a nanometer comb electrode, and this method Have the shortcomings that cost is high, program is complicated, time-consuming.When the lithium columbate crystal to millimeters thick polarizes, due to inverting farmland Horizontal broadening effect in rearwardly growth course, the minor cycle, which inverts, easily produces the merging of adjacent reversion farmland in the manufacturing process of farmland The problems such as.The achieved Minimum Polarization cycle is also generally 3 μm or so.
The content of the invention
The present invention is unable to reach nano level defect for prior art polarization cycle, proposes a kind of LiNbO_3 film nanometer The periodic polarized method of level, makes comb electrode, then pass through extra electric field on lithium niobate monocrystal film using nano impression Polarization method carries out periodic electrodes, can prepare nanometer-scale periodic poled lithium niobate monocrystal thin films.Due to electrode width and Lithium niobate crystal body thickness all in nanoscale, can avoid the horizontal broadening effect in polarization time domain growth course, and can be hundreds of Nanometer-scale periodic polarization structure, and required polarizing voltage very little are directly prepared on the LiNbO_3 film of nanometer thickness.
The present invention is achieved by the following technical solutions:
Present invention molding first after the whirl coating of lithium niobate monocrystal film sample surface obtains a nanometer pectinate texture, is then receiving Metallic diaphragm is coated with as top electrode in rice pectinate texture, then passes through the conductive electrode layer in lithium niobate monocrystal film sample and top Electrode carries out polarization process, finally by whirl coating and conductive electrode layer is removed, obtains periodic polarized LiNbO_3 film.
Described lithium niobate monocrystal film sample include lithium niobate substrate and set gradually silicon dioxide layer thereon, Conductive electrode layer and lithium niobate monocrystal film layer, wherein:Lithium niobate monocrystal film layer passes through ion implantation technique and Direct Bonding Technology is combined to obtain, and thickness is hundred nano-scale.
Described conductive electrode layer is made up of gold, platinum or other metals.
Described whirl coating, spin-on material are not limited to PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate), PDMA, photoresist etc., are preferably One layer of PMMA solution of spin coating on lithium niobate monocrystal film sample.
Described molding refers to, before whirl coating solidification, the mould of nanoscale electrode is pressed in above, and in environment under low pressure Lower application pressure so that the cavity in whirl coating filling mould;Pressing mold process terminates solidify afterwards and formed with the figure overlapped with mould Shape simultaneously removes mould.
Described mould, its pattern are preferably nanometer pectinate texture,
Described is coated with, using but be not limited to evaporation or magnetron sputtering, the thickness for the metal film being coated be more than imprint nano The depth of cutting in pectinate texture, so as to obtain the nano-electrode of large area broach rule.
Described metal film uses but is not limited to the good conductivities such as gold, silver, chromium and is easy to the material of plated film.
Described polarization process refers to, grounding electrode is set in the lithium niobate substrate of lithium niobate monocrystal film sample, Between top electrode and grounding electrode apply polarization electric impulse signal, polarized electric field direction caused by the polarization electric impulse signal with The spontaneous polarization on lithium niobate farmland is opposite.
Because LiNbO_3 film thickness is in the case of hundreds of nanometers, according to lithium columbate crystal coercive field 21kV/mm, outer power-up Field polarizing voltage is very low, not more than air puncture voltage, solves the problem of air-isolation.When external electric field poling is more than niobium During the coercive field of sour crystalline lithium, the reversion of lithium niobate domain structure can be realized.And electrode width and lithium niobate crystal body thickness are all In nanoscale, the horizontal broadening effect in polarization time domain growth course can be avoided.
Technique effect
Compared with prior art, the present invention prepares micro-nano electrode by nano-imprinting method on LiNbO_3 film, enters And the reversion of LiNbO_3 film domain structure is realized by extra electric field.The polarization cycle of preparation is sub-micron or hundred nano-scale, and It is suitable for preparing large area domain inversion structures.The nanometer comb electrode utilized prepares simple.By nano-imprinting method in niobium Nanometer comb electrode is prepared on sour lithium film, is a kind of easy and effective and high yield method.External electric field poling voltage is very low, Solve the problem of air-isolation, simplify polarization device.

Described lithium niobate monocrystal film cuts for Z-direction, thickness 300-700nm.
The present embodiment comprises the following steps:
As shown in Fig. 2 one layer of PMMA layer of whirl coating is as whirl coating layer 15 first in lithium niobate monocrystal film layer 14.The whirl coating Layer 15 is specially the PMMA methyl phenyl ethers anisole solution of content 6%, and whirl coating speed is 1000r/min, whirl coating time 1min, the PMMA of gained The thickness of whirl coating layer 15 is about 0.5 μm.
As shown in Figure 3 a, nanostructured is transferred to by PMMA whirl coating layers by the metallic mold for nano-imprint 2 of pectination formwork structure On 15, by applying pressure under environment under low pressure so that the cavity in PMMA materials filling mould.After pressing mold process terminates, PMMA solidifies, and is formed with the figure overlapped with mould, then removes mould.
