What is LITHIUM NIOBATE?
Chemical properties
white powder(s), also single crystal(s); can be prepared by hydrolysis of equimolar amounts of lithium ethoxide and niobium ethoxide in absolute alcohol by refluxing at 78.5°C for 24h, then crystallizing the resulting precipitate by heating 2h in a stream of oxygen gas at 250°C–350°C; ferroelectric; used in infrared detectors, in transducers for lasers, and as a sputtering target of 99.9% purity for piezoelectric applications [HAW93] [STR93] [HIR87] [CER91]
