Improving the modulation efficiency of thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) modulators is essential to reducing drive voltage and device length, thereby enabling compact chip integration and enhanced ...

Although strong absorption by water vapor presents challenges, the non-ionizing nature of THz waves and their sensitivity to molecular structure ... in a prism-cut lithium niobate (LiNbO 3 ...

A recent article in Advanced Materials reports a new fabrication method for nonlinear optical components using nanostructured polycrystalline lithium niobate (LN). The study addresses key limitations ...

The potassium sodium niobate (K x Na 1 −x)NbO 3 (KNN) family with the perovskite structure is a technologically important lead-free piezoelectric material. At first, the nature of end members ...

To achieve the record conductivity, the team created a novel material composed of lithium, antimony, and scandium.

A team partially replaced lithium in a lithium antimonide compound with the metal scandium. This creates specific gaps, so-called vacancies, in the crystal lattice of the conductor material. These ...

A research team has developed an innovative membrane that mimics biological ion channels to achieve highly selective lithium ...

Lightweight lithium metal is a heavy-hitting critical mineral, serving as the key ingredient in the rechargeable batteries that power phones, laptops, electric vehicles and more. As ubiquitous as ...
