3 The main application of lithium tantalate crystal3.2 OscillatorAn oscillator is an energy conversion device that converts DC power into AC power with a certain frequency. This circuit is called an oscillation circuit. The oscillator achieves free oscillation through the mutual conversion between magnetic field energy and electric field energy.Oscillators are divided into RC oscillators, LC oscillators and crystal oscillators. The crystal oscillator has a piezoelectric effect, and the crystal will deform when a voltage is applied to the two poles of the wafer.

1.2 Near-stoichiometric Lithium Tantalate Crystal Most of the lithium tantalate crystals currently used are grown from melts with the same composition ratio, which is generally called the same composition lithium tantalate (CLT). However, large number of defects affect the physical properties of the CLT crystal, so researchers have conducted study on near-stoichiometric lithium tantalate (NSLT) with less material defects and better physical properties.

2. Fabrication of Lithium Tantalate Crystal2.1 Fabrication of same composition lithium tantalate crystalThe same composition Lithium tantalate (CLT) crystals are often fabricated by mixing high-purity tantalum pentoxide with high-purity lithium carbonate at a stoichiometric ratio of 0.95:1 (molar ratio), and are prepared by the crucible pulling method. The quality of LiTaO3 crystal (www.wisoptic.com) is generally affected by factors such as raw material ratio, pulling speed, seed crystal quality, crucible shape and type.

Introduction 532nm solid-state lasers are widely used in industry and medicine. In the field of scientific research, continuous, high-stability 532nm green light and kilohertz, high-energy nanosecond 532nm laser are the most ideal pump source solutions for titanium sapphire oscillators and amplifiers respectively. The basic route is to use an 808nm/880nm semiconductor laser as the pump source, generate a 1064nm laser in an Nd:YVO4 or Nd:YAG crystal, and then perform frequency doubling (SHG) through a frequency doubling crystal to generate a continuous or pulsed 532nm laser.

2. Theoretical analysis2.2 Design of CPPLN crystal structureIn order to achieve better temperature robustness and higher frequency doubling efficiency on the same CPPLN crystal, we designed the crystal structure of CPPLN. The schematic diagram of CPPLN for frequency doubling from 1064nm to 532nm is shown in Figure 1. The incident beam with fundamental frequency is set to be e-light, that is, its polarization direction is horizontal. At the same time, the output beam is also set to be e-light.

2.2 Fabrication of lithium tantalate crystal with near stoichiometric ratioThe preparation of near-stoichiometric lithium tantalate (NSLT) crystals is difficult. The current methods mainly include: the double crucible method, the flux pulling method, the float zone method and the gas phase exchange equilibrium method. 2.2.1 The double crucible methodIn the double crucible method, the melt material needs to be continuously added to the crucible during the crystal preparation process to keep the melt composition unchanged.

4. Experimental Result and Analysis4.1 Comparison of frequency doubling efficiency of CPPLN and LBOThe CPPLN crystal (www.wisoptic.com) we designed has the maximum frequency doubling efficiency in the working range between 15-40℃, so the subsequent analysis will be carried out around this range. In the same fundamental frequency light power gradient, the effect of temperature change on the frequency doubling efficiency of CPPLN is shown in Figure 4(a).

3 The main application of lithium tantalate crystal3.1 SAW Wave filterPeng et al. used ion etching to process lithium tantalate (LT) crystals to obtain a high fundamental frequency crystal resonator. They used this crystal resonator to design a high-frequency broadband filter, which improved the operating frequency and reliability of the filter and increased the number of The bandwidth of the filter ensures the high temperature stability and low insertion loss of the filter.

IntroductionLithium tantalate (LiTaO3, referred to as LT), as an excellent multifunctional crystal material, has good piezoelectric, electro-optical and pyroelectric properties, and is ideal for making surface acoustic wave (SAW) filters, resonators, tuners, Q switches and pyroelectric detectors. Devices made from LT crystal (www.wisoptic.com) are widely used in the automotive electronics, 5G communications and infrared detectors, and have broad market prospects.In 1965, Ballman used the pulling method to grow LT single crystal for the first time.

2.3 Lithium tantalate single crystal filmAfter the 1980s, thin film preparation technology has developed rapidly. Currently, the commonly used preparation technologies of lithium tantalate single crystal (www.wisoptic.com) thin film mainly include chemical vapor deposition, physical vapor deposition, magnetron sputtering and sol-gel method.The chemical vapor deposition method synthesizes a thin film on a substrate through a chemical reaction and accurately controls the chemical composition of the product. It has the characteristics of low stress and good quality.
