    摘要: A main optical path disposed between light input and output ends and an auxiliary optical path disposed so as to correspond to the main optical path are optically coupled to each other with first, second, and third optical couplers. The respective optical path lengths of main and auxiliary optical paths differ from each other between the first and second optical couplers and between the second and third optical couplers. Between the first and second optical couplers and between the second and third optical couplers, at least one of the main and auxiliary optical paths is provided with temperature adjusting means for adjusting the temperature of the corresponding optical path.

    摘要: A plurality of optic modulators implemented using segmented electrodes and nonparallel waveguide structures are cascaded using optical couplers to provide a linearization of the overall electro-optic transfer function. Each of the optical modulators which are coupled in cascade have an electrode structure which is divided into a plurality of relatively small segments. The segments are connected via bond wires and transmission lines on an adjoining microwave circuit board. Each of the optical modulators includes a pair of waveguides which are sloped so as to result in a nonparallel waveguide structure which reduces acoustic effects, e.g., ripple. By using a plurality of small segments to implement the electrode structure a high degree of sensitivity is achieved as compared to when a single lengthy electrode structure is used. The combination of the non-parallel waveguides and a segmented electrode provides for a relatively large flat frequency response, e.g., in excess of 1 GHz. The electrode structure is also designed to minimize the effective capacitance of the electrode structure to thereby broaden the bandwidth of the optic modulator of the present invention as compared to devices using solid center electrodes.
