Abstract
A ferroelectric hybrid plasmonic waveguide, made of a polycrystal lithium niobate waveguide separated from a gold film by a silicon dioxide isolation layer, is fabricated by use of laser molecular beam epitaxy growth, electron beam evaporation, and focused ion beam etching. Strong subwavelength mode confinement and excellent long-range propagation are achieved simultaneously for the hybrid plasmonic mode. An all-optical logic OR gate is also realized based on the ferroelectric hybrid plasmonic waveguide. This may provide a way for the study of all-optical logic gates and integrated photonic circuits.
