Both ferroelectric Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 (NBT) and K0.5Bi0.5TiO3 (KBT) are considered as the best known lead-free materials. In this experiment, we prepared NBT and KBT thin films on Pt/TiO2/SiO2/Si substrates by metalorganic solution deposition. The structural properties and surface morphologies were...

High-quality Nd:LuVO4 thin films have been grown on silica glass substrates by using a pulsed laser deposition technique. X-ray diffraction results show that the as-deposited Nd:LuVO4 film is basically oriented polycrystalline, and strong (200) peak was revealed. The waveguide property was...
