Lithium tantalate (LiTaO₃) crystals belong to the trigonal crystal system, with a density of 7.4564 g/cm³. They exhibit excellent thermal stability (melting point of 1650°C) and a wide optical transparency range (350 to 5000 nm). The refractive index and electro-optic coefficient are 2.180 (ordinary light, 632.8 nm) and 15.1 pm/V (852 nm), respectively, and they possess a high relative permittivity (ε11 = 53.6, ε33 = 43.4). In addition, lithium tantalate has significant piezoelectric and nonlinear optical coefficients, good thermal conductivity (0.05 W/cm·K), and a hardness of 5.5, making it suitable for applications in high-frequency and optical devices.
