Lithium niobate (LiNbO3) structures are deposited on N-type silicon substrate by chemical sol-gel method. The chemical mixture was prepared with different time of stirrer (8h, 24h, 48h) respectively. The nanostructures are deposited by spin coating at 3000rpm for 30sec and annealed 400°C. They are characterized and analyzed by means of x-ray diffraction and Atomic Force Microscopy. The measurement results show that at increasing of mixing time, the photonic film start to crystallize to become a more regular, homogeneous distribution and Improving, which helps to use in the preparing of optical waveguide and the other of the Photonic and optoelectronics applications
