Abstract
Phase formation processes accompanying high-temperature Ti diffusion i n thin waveguide layers of LiNbO3 were studied by grazing-incidence x- ray diffraction and complementary techniques. The development and deca y of a rutilelike phase (Li0.25Nb0.75O2)(1-x) (TiO2)(x) was directly o bserved as a function of annealing time. A solid-state reaction is pro posed, which clarifies the mechanism of [S0003-6951(98)02736-3].
