Abstract: \nThe aim of the PhD project is to develop a new trend in modulation system for Exail company: thin film (<1 μm) lithium niobate (LN) electro-optic modulator. It exhibits better performance in term of bandwidth, power consumption and footprint than legacy ones [1-3]. This PhD is a cooperation between Exail photonics which is world-renowned for the performances of their electro-optic modulators and FEMTO-ST institute which can offer the possibility to grow stoichiometric LN thin film by means of direct liquid injection metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (DLI-MOCVD). This cooperation opens the possibility to obtain industrialization of optical device based on CVD LN stoichiometric layers which allow to have enhanced performances such as higher electro-optic coefficient than that of congruent compositions of commercial single crystals. Thus, all steps from MOCVD layer deposition to modulator realization can be done here in Besançon.\n
