The book collects the results obtained in the last years by world scientific leaders in the field, thus providing a valid and unique overview of the state-of-the-art and also a view to future applications of those engineered and used materials in the field of photonics. The second edition covers the major aspects of ferroelectric domain engineering and combines basic research and latest updated applications such as challenging results by introducing either new as well as extended chapters on Photonics Crystals based on Lithiunm Niobate and Lithium Tantalate crystals;  generation, visualization and controlling of THz radiation; latest achievements on Optical Parametric Oscillators for application in precise spectroscopy. Furthermore recent advancements in characterization by probe scanning microscopy and optical methods  with device and technological orientation. A state-of-the-art report on periodically poled processes and their characterization methods are provided on different materials (LiNbO3, KTP) furnishing update research on ferroelectric crystal by extending materials research and applications. 410 0$aSpringer series in materials science ;$vvolume 91. 606 $aFerroelectric crystals 606 $aPhotonics 615 0$aFerroelectric crystals. 615 0$aPhotonics. 676 $a538 702 $aFerraro$b P$g(Pietro), 702 $aGrilli$b Simonetta$f1962- 702 $aDe Natale$b Paolo 801 0$bMiFhGG 801 1$bMiFhGG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298659603321 996 $aFerroelectric Crystals for Photonic Applications$92504533 997 $aUNINA
