| Abstract: | Lithium niobate on insulator(LNOI)is rising as one of the most promising platforms for integrated photonics due to the high-index-contrast and excellent material properties of lithium niobate,such as wideband transparency from visible to mid-infrared,large electro-optic,piezoelectric,and second-order harmonic coefficients.The fast-developing micro-and nano-structuring techniques on LNOI have enabled various structure,devices,systems,and applications.In this contribution,we re-view the latest developments in this platform,including ultra-high speed electro-optic modulators,optical frequency combs,opto-electro-mechanical system on chip,second-harmonic generation in periodically poled LN waveguides,and efficient edge coupling for LNOI. |
