Abstract

In Czochralski-grown PPLN crystals, grown along X-axis and along the normal to the \({\{}01\bar{1}2{\}}\) face we obtain such small period as 2.5–2.8 μm. AFM study shows that the different etching regimes are needed for X-, Y- and Z-cuts of PPLN crystals. The etching conditions depend also on the type of crystal compound.
