Abstract

The present invention relates to a method to control the nucleation and transverse motion of 180° inverted domains in ferroelectric nonlinear crystals. It includes a process composing of a high temperature oxidation of the first metal layer and a pulsed field poling of the second electrodes. The main object of present invention is to provide domain inversion of ferroelectric nonlinear crystals with field control the nucleation and transverse motion of inverted domains and two-dimension nonlinear photonic crystals for time-domain multiple-wave simultaneous lasers and space filter function. Another object of present invention is to provide space-charge effect for screened edge field beneath the metal electrode, The other object of present invention is to provide the constraint of inverted domain nucleation in the oxidized electrode for arbitrarily geometrical form of 2D ferroelectric lattice structure.
