(LiNbO3) films as a new platform for high‐density integrated optics is reviewed. Sub‐
micrometer thin LiNbO3 films are obtained by “ion‐slicing”. They can be bonded by two
different techniques to a low‐index substrate to obtain “lithium niobate on insulator”(LNOI)
even as wafer of 3” diameter. Different micro‐and nano‐structuring techniques have been
used to successfully develop micro‐photonic devices. To be specific, the fabrication and …
