Abstract
Integrated optic devices such as high speed waveguide switches are essential components for modulation and multiplexing operations in optical communication and signal processing. Thin films of the optically transparent ferroelectric oxide PbxLa1−x(ZryTi1−y)1−x/4O3 (PLZT) materials have very large electrooptic effects and are very promising materials for fabricating such devices. Deposition, characterization, and TIR switch operation in thin film PLZT has been reported by Adachi et al.1 and Higashino et al.2
