LiNbO₃ Wide Bandwidth Phase Modulator

LiNbO₃ Wide Bandwidth Phase Modulator

The LiNbO3 wide bandwidth phase modulator is manufactured by micro-electronics technology. Waveguides are produced by the annealed proton exchange (APE) process or the Ti-diffusion process, and can work in single-polarization or birefringence operation. With a traveling-wave electrode the modulator is ideally suited to high bandwidth operation at 1 GHz, 10 GHz, 20 GHz and up to 30 GHz, with highly reliable performance over a wide temperature range.
