Abstract

Integrated optics offers a unique opportunity for ultra-high frequency electric field sensing. We report here design and operating parameters for a Mach-Zehnder travelling-wave modulator for operation at ultra high frequencies. The interferometer is fabricated on LiNb03 crystals by Ti-indiffusion. The electrode design features an asymetric coplanar line coupled to the optical waveguides by a series of thin, parallel capacitor structures.
