1. KDP A typical electro-optic amplitude modulator is shown above. A linearly polarized beam with wavelength 2 633nm is sent a KDP crystal which is oriented such that when a voltage is applied across its faces the index of refraction along y-axis and x-axis make an angle of 45 degrees with respect to the input polarization. This results in a phase change between the x and y components of the input beam. For KDP, the electro-optic coefficient is given as...
1. KDP A typical electro-optic amplitude modulator is shown above. A linearly polarized beam with wavelength 633nm is sent a KDP crystal which is oriented such that when a voltage is applied across its faces the index of refraction along y-axis and x-axis make an angle of 45 degrees with respect to the input polarization. This results in a phase change between the x and y components of the input beam. For KDP, the electro-optic coefficient is given as r6...
