Fabrication of surface relief gratings on lithium niobate by combined UV laser and wet etching

Surface relief gratings have been fabricated on pure and Ti indiffused lithium niobate samples of x-cut and z-cut crystallographic orientations by a simple two-step process, which combines optical (pulsed ultra-violet laser) and chemical etching.
