摘要
We report on a novel route for fabrication of micro-cantilevers in ferroelectric single-crystal lithium niobate (LiNbO3). Using the sequential techniques of photo lithographic patterning. electric field poling, direct bonding and domain-oriented differential etching, free-standing cantilevers of dimensions 50 mum x 50 mum x 5 mm in the x. z and v crystallographic directions, respectively, have been fabricated.
