LiNbO3 is widely used as electro-optic modulators and Q-switches for Nd:YAG, Nd:YLF and Ti:Sapphire lasers as well as modulators for fiber optics.
LiNbO3 crystal combines low cost, good mechanical and physical properties as well as high optical homogeneity. Therefore, LiNbO3 wedges have been widely used in fiber isolators and circulators.
