Fabrication of piezoelectric micro-cantilevers in domain-engineered LiNbO3 single crystals
We report on a novel route for fabrication of micro-cantilevers in ferroelectric single-crystal lithium niobate (LiNbO3). Using the sequential techniques of photolithographic patterning, electric field poling, direct bonding and domain-oriented differential etching, free-standing cantilevers of dimensions 50µm × 50µm × 5 mm in the x, z and y crystallographic directions, respectively, have been fabricated.

Abstract

We report on a novel route for fabrication of micro-cantilevers in ferroelectric single-crystal lithium niobate (LiNbO3). Using the sequential techniques of photolithographic patterning, electric field poling, direct bonding and domain-oriented differential etching, free-standing cantilevers of dimensions 50µm × 50µm × 5 mm in the x, z and y crystallographic directions, respectively, have been fabricated.
