Abstract
The linearization of all interferometric modulator by polarization mixing over the suboctave frequency range of 3.6 to 5.6 GHz is reported. A traveling-wave modulator fabricated in X-cut LiNbO/sub 3/ utilizing the r/sub 33/ (TE) and r/sub 13/ (TM) electrooptic coefficients was employed. The effective V/sub pi /s (from a 50- Omega source) were 14 and 43 V for the TE and TM modes, respectively. The modulator response was not optimized for this frequency range. A DC voltage was used to separate bias electrodes to adjust the relative TE and TM phase bias. A polarizer was placed between the diode-pumped Nd:YAG laser source, and the modulator to adjust the relative TE and TM optical power. The modulator output was measured with a high-speed photodetector and spectrum analyzer.<>
