摘要
Highly-quality epitaxially grown (Pb,La)(Zr,Ti)O-3 (PLTZ) flms were successfully fabricated on single-crystalline sapphire (012) substrates using a modified sol-gel process. The crystallographic relationship between the PLZT film and the sapphire substrate, and the detailed electro-optic (EO) properties of the films were investigated. Large linear EO coefficients,. as large as 5 10 pm/V. were obtained when an electric field was, applied at 145 angle to the PLZT {110}. In turn, smaller EO coefficients were obtained when an electric field was applied at 0 degrees and 90 degrees angles to PLZT {110}. A strong EO anisotropy was observed according to the configuration of the input light polarization and the applied electric field.
