Fabrication of alignment grooves in LiNbO<sub>3</sub> substrates for simplified optical fibre pigtailing

A technique for lubricating alignment grooves in LiNbO<sub>3</sub> substrates. The simplified optical fibre attachment, is reported. The grooves are produced through the etching of material that has been domain inverted via spatially selective electric field poling. The etched grooves ar...
