The fabrication of LiNbO 3 waveguide slabs with sub‐micron thickness is presented using He ion‐induced splitting and the Cu–Sn bonding technique. The exfoliation time of implanted LiNbO 3 was investigated as a function of annealing temperatures to reveal the activation energies during the splitting process. Defect‐free waveguide films with large areas of several cm 2 are consistently produced by using the inter‐diffusion bonding of Cu–Sn interface. The fabricated film was investigated by using the Rutherford backscattering/channeling method and dark mode spectroscopy.
