“…The perturbation of the dielectric tensor is periodically generated by the driving frequency. 23) Therefore, the polarization of the incident light must vary with a period of the inverse frequency. Furthermore, an LSAW with a high electromechanical coupling factor on Y-cut X-propagating LiNbO 3 can be utilized.…”

“…On the other hand, von Helmolt reported a straight channel optical waveguide phase modulator driven by a crossing SAW. 23) The modulation effect was demon-strated by intensity modulation using either a Mach-Zehnder interferometer or an optical directional coupler. 23) A rapid response may realized by utilizing such a configuration.…”

Polarization control of the optical guided wave in a new configuration using a reverse-proton-exchanged (RPE) LiNbO3 straight waveguide and a leaky surface acoustic wave (LSAW) which propagates perpendicular to the straight waveguide was proposed. First, the perturbation of the dielectric tensor was estimated by using coupled mode theory. When a Love-type SAW on a proton-exchanged layer/YX-LiNbO3 was assumed, comparable perturbations to those in conventional Bragg diffraction due to a Rayleigh wave were confirmed. Next, a sample device with an LSAW wavelength Λ of 136 µm was fabricated on YX-LiNbO3 using an RPE channel waveguide. It was found that the incident linearly polarized wave was rotated by -90° in addition to the inherent rotation due to the perturbation of the LSAW without adding the LSAW wavenumber vector to the propagation constant of the incident optical guided mode. The maximum conversion efficiencies for optical wavelengths of 633, 532, and 473 nm were 87, 43, and 40%, respectively. The measured response time of 280 ns was almost equivalent to the time required for the propagation of the LSAW through the interdigital transducer width.

“…As discussed in [35] the intensity of the higher optical harmonics produced by the modulator are given by That means that the suppression of the 3rd harmonics is of the order of 15 dB and the efficiency to generate the first harmonics is about 67% (1.7 dB loss). The carrier frequency and all even numbered harmonics will be suppressed totally.…”

Taking into account parameters of realized components for wavelength division multiplexing systems with multimode graded index fibers, it is shown that such a system has no advantage compared to a single wavelength system operating at an optimum wavelength. We therefore propose a new wavelength division multiplexing system with very small optical frequency separation of some GHz in connection with a single-mode fiber and heterodyne receiver. The components for such a future system can be realized by using integrated optics.
