Abstract
Lithium Niobate (LN) is a widely used material for fabrication of optical waveguides (WGs) because of its acousto-optic, electro-optic and nonlinear properties, and a wide transparency range. The major drawback of the traditional methods used for WG fabrication in LN is that WGs can only be produced near the crystal surface and with little or no control over their properties. In order to expand the applicability of LN devices this issue has to be addressed.
