Ferroelectric domain walls (DWs) are a novel approach towards nanoelectronic circuitry since providing localized conduction within a fully insulating host matrix. The key factor is the DW inclination angle α with respect to the crystallographic axes determining the amount of polarization charge at the head-to-head DWs. Hence, the conductivity can be considerably tuned via doping concentration and poling conditions. We apply Cherenkov second-harmonic generation (C-SHG) to map such charged DWs in three dimensions throughout a mm-thick Mg:LiNbO3 single crystal [1]. We will present domain wall topologies for different cases, also including surface domains, which are created upon external UV illumination and exhibiting also tail-to-tail DWs. We investigated the domain wall protrusion upon different illumination strengths. Moreover, we will also introduce into an extended version of C-SHG based on interferometric SHG (I-SHG). I-SHG provides several advantages as compared to C-SHG, such as an increased vertical resolution, a larger vertical imaging range, as well as easier imaging conditions.
