Lithium niobate oxide (Li₂Nb₂O₆) is a ceramic semiconductor compound combining lithium and niobium oxides, typically studied as part of the lithium niobate material family. This material is of primary research interest for ferroelectric, piezoelectric, and photonic applications rather than established high-volume engineering use. The compound is notable for its potential in electro-optic modulators, nonlinear optical devices, and advanced sensor systems where lithium niobate's crystalline properties can be leveraged at the oxide level.
