Ordered nano-scale domains in lithium niobate single crystals via phase-mask assisted all-optical poling

We report the formation of directionally-ordered nanoscale surface domains on the +z face of undoped congruent lithium niobate single crystals by using UV illumination through a phase mask with an energy fluence between ~90mj/cm<sup>2</sup> and 150 mJ/cm<sup>2</sup> at lambda...
