A singulated thin film lithium containing (TFLC) photonics device, as well as a method and system for singulating the device are described. The TFLC photonics device includes a device layer and a silicon substrate. The device layer includes a TFLC layer having a depth. The device layer also has a first sawn edge. The silicon substrate has a second sawn edge and includes an upper portion and a lower portion. The upper portion has the second sawn edge that is mutually aligned with the first sawn edge. The upper portion overhangs the lower portion.

Double blade dicing of lithium-containing photonics devices

An electro-optic device is described. The electro-optic device includes at least one optical material having an electro-optic effect. Further, the optical material(s) include lithium. The optical material(s) have a slab and a ridge waveguide. The slab has a top surface. The slab includes free surfaces. Each of the free surfaces is at a nonzero angle from the top surface of the slab and mitigates stress in the slab.
