Description
LiTaO3 Piezo-Electrical Crystal Manufacturer | X-Z LAB
The LiTaO3 piezo-electrical crystal (lithium tantalate) is an important multi-functional material with excellent piezoelectric, ferroelectric, acousto-optic, and electro-optic effects. X-Z LAB supplies high-quality LiTaO3 boules, wafers, and slices with specifications for standard applications, and we can offer other specifications upon request. Therefore, device makers can source both standard and custom geometries from a single supplier.
Core material advantages
Four effects in one crystal. Excellent piezoelectric, ferroelectric, acousto-optic, and electro-optic effects let a single material serve many device types. As a result, designers can cover multiple device types with one crystal family. Using one material for several effects simplifies sourcing and qualification.
Proven in key industries. It works as a basic functional material in SAW devices, optical communication, and laser and optoelectronic fields. For example, SAW filters and resonators built on lithium tantalate serve mobile phones, interphones, and satellite communications. Aerospace systems and other communications equipment also rely on these components.
Flexible supply forms. We provide boules, wafers, and slices with specifications for standard applications. In addition, custom specifications are available upon request, so prototypes and volume builds can stay on one material platform. Standard specifications cover the most common requests.
LiTaO3 piezo-electrical crystal applications
Typical uses include resonators, SAW filters, energy converters, and electronic communication devices, across mobile phones, interphones, satellite communications, aerospace systems, and other communications equipment. Moreover, the same crystal family supports optical communication and laser and optoelectronic fields. Consequently, one material can support both communication devices and laser applications. Energy converters turn mechanical energy into electrical signals for sensing applications.
