Very low voltage single drive domain inverted LiNbO(3) integrated electro-optic modulator.
Domain inversion is used in a simple fashion to improve significantly the performance of a waveguide electro-optic modulator in z-cut LiNbO(3). The waveguide arms of the Mach-Zehnder interferometer are placed in opposite domain-oriented regions under the same, narrower and more efficient electrode, so that opposite phase shifts (push-pull effect) can still be achieved despite the arms being sub...
متن کاملHigh-q Microphotonic Electro-optic Modulator
A microphotonic mm-wave modulator using simultaneous RF and optical resonance in an electro-optic medium is presented. Theory and simulation of modulator operation is discussed, and experimental results demonstrating modulation using simultaneous resonance in the mm-wave range are reported.

متن کاملElectro-optic periodically poled lithium niobate Bragg modulator as a laser Q-switch.
We report an electro-optic Bragg modulator using a periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) crystal. We measured a half-wave voltage of 160 V when transmitting a 1064 nm laser through a 14.2 mm long, 780 microm thick, 20.13 microm period PPLN crystal at the Bragg angle. We also demonstrated a Q-switched Nd:YVO(4) laser using such a PPLN Bragg modulator as its Q-switch, producing 7.8 ns, 201 mi...
متن کاملActively Q-switched Nd:YVO4 laser using an electro-optic periodically poled lithium niobate crystal as a laser Q-switch.
We demonstrate a low-voltage and fast laser Q-switching by using an electro-optic periodically poled lithium niobate (EO PPLN) crystal. The half-wave voltage measured from the EO PPLN crystal was 0.36 V x d (microm)/L (cm), where d is the electrode separation and L is the electrode length. When a 13-mm-long EO PPLN was used as a laser Q switch at 7-kHz switching rate, we measured an approximate...
متن کاملElectro-optic modulation of single photons.
We use the Stokes photon of a biphoton pair to set the time origin for electro-optic modulation of the wave function of the anti-Stokes photon thereby allowing arbitrary phase and amplitude modulation. We demonstrate conditional single-photon wave functions composed of several pulses, or instead, having Gaussian or exponential shapes.
