We show the defect dependence of the internal field in Lithium Niobate using a full-field interferometric method and demonstrate that it can be directly measured on some clusters of defects embedded in a stoichiometric matrix. Results show that the value of the internal field grows in proximity of defects and vanishes far from them, which addresses the long-standing issue about its origin in Lithium Niobate crystal.

Abstract

We show the defect dependence of the internal field in Lithium Niobate using a full-field interferometric method and demonstrate that it can be directly measured on some clusters of defects embedded in a stoichiometric matrix. Results show that the value of the internal field grows in proximity of defects and vanishes far from them, which addresses the long-standing issue about its origin in Lithium Niobate crystal.
