  • We investigate the etching characteristics of PIN-PMN-PT crystals, exploring various wet etching solutions, reactive ion etching gases, and ion beam etching. The etch rate and surface roughness are systematically measured for each method. A process flow to obtain PIN-PMN-PT thin films is described and performed to later build a single mode rib waveguide. An integrated electro-optic phase modulator is fabricated by depositing electrodes on the sides of the waveguides. The electro-optic coefficient implied in our phase modulators is the $r_{51}/r_{42}$. The performances are tested achieving a $V_πL$ of 19.2 V$\cdot$cm.
