  • Patent number: 6319430
    Abstract: Crystals of lithium niobate and lithium tantalate are preconditioned to intentionally increase their electrical conductivity, thus providing crystals with an increased ability to reduce surface charging. Reducing surface charging reduces the risk that the crystals may catastrophically discharge, and adversely affect the performance of devices in which the crystal is incorporated.
