Novel Millimeter-Wave Electro-optic Modulator

Abstract

A waveguide LiNbO_3 electro-optic modulator has been demonstrated with a novel wave-coupling technique which greatly reduces phase-velocity mismatch. An 8-12 GHz version produces 48° phase modulation with 126 mW of drive power. A 60 GHz version is being built
