Abstract
Lithium niobate (LiNbO3) and silicon (Si) have proven to be hugely important technological materials for photonics and electronics. LiNbO3 is electro-optic, acousto-optic, is optically nonlinear and has an excellent track record of applications in photonics and acoustics. Si on the other hand benefits from the mature processing technology that has been developed for the electronics industry and is suitable for the fabrication of photonic circuits in the near/mid IR spectral region. Hybrid Si and LiNbO3 optoelectronic structures have the potential to be a transformative technology platform, by merging the excellent and complementary capabilities of the constituent materials. A recent demonstration of such a scheme has been presented in [1] where a composite was fabricated using a contact bonding technology.
