Abstract
The fabrication method for ferroelectric domain reversals wherein domain reversals are definitely produced in the vicinity of the surface of a ferroelectric by radiating a charged particle beam onto the ferroelectric. An SiO.sub.2 film 2 whose electrical resistance is higher than that of LiNbO.sub.3 is deposited on the surface of a substrate which is exposed to an electron beam, thereby fabricating domain reversals which extend along the direction an electron beam radiation.
Claims8
An improved fabrication method for ferroelectric domain reversals in which domain reversals are formed to extend in a direction defined by a charged particle beam of radiation characterized by the step of irradiating the charged particle beam onto a unipolarized ferroelectric through a high resistance layer having an electrical resistance higher than that of the ferroelectric, said high resistance layer having been previously deposited on the surface of the ferroelectric which is to be exposed to the charged particle beam.
In a fabrication method for ferroelectric domain reversals in which domain reversals are formed to extend along the direction of a charged particle beam radiation by irradiating the charged particle beam onto a unipolarized ferroelectric, an improvement comprising the steps of:
- (a) depositing a high resistance layer having an electrical resistance higher than that of the ferroelectric;
- (b) exposing said high resistance layer to a charged particle beam;
- and
- (c) removing said high resistance layer.
The improved fabrication method for ferroelectric domain reversals as recited in clam 4, wherein each time a target area of the surface is exposed to the charge particle beam for a given period, the ferroelectric is transferred with a given pitch.
