Abstract: An electro-optical deflector device, having a thin ferroelectric oxide film and a method of fabricating the deflector device is described. On embodiment of a thin film electro-optic deflector device includes: a planar optical waveguide, having a thin ferroelectric oxide layer; a first electrode, having a conductive substrate and a conductive epoxy; a second electrode coupled to the planar optical waveguide; a supporting substrate; a cladding layer attached to the second electrode deposited on the supporting substrate; and a hole through the supporting substrate and the cladding layer for connecting the second electrode to an external voltage source.
