The reduction technique is applied to produce black LN, which neutralizes charges even during instantaneous electric potential. The pyroelectric effect is nearly eliminated, and transmittance significantly reduced. The piezoelectric properties remain unchanged from standard wafers, making black lithium niobate ideal for higher-frequency surface acoustic wave devices.

An innovative reduction process is applied to produce “black” LT wafers that eliminate pyroelectric discharge, making them ideal for high-frequency SAW applications. During this process, LiTaO₃ crystals undergo chemical reduction in a controlled atmosphere, which preserves key properties such as Curie temperature and piezoelectric characteristics while significantly reducing optical transmittance. These black wafers neutralize electrical charges and offer distinct advantages in applications requiring pyroelectric discharge prevention and high-frequency operation, contributing to improved performance and reliability in advanced SAW devices.
