Abstract

A preparation method of an aperiodic wideband response electro-optic modulator comprises the following steps: selecting a ferroelectric single domain crystal; selecting the widths d of the electric domains of a single acting sample in a to-be-prepared crystal and the number N of total electric domains, and obtaining the polarization direction of each electric domain by computing to acquire the arrangement sequences of the positive electric domains and the negative electric domains so as to form an aperiodic optical superlattice; performing room-temperature electric-field polarization to the structure of the aperiodic optical superlattice; preparing a running-wave electrode on the +Z surface of the aperiodic optical superlattice in an evaporation manner, connecting a high-frequency resistor to the tail part of the running-wave electrode in series, and arranging a polarizer before the crystal of the aperiodic optical superlattice to form the electrooptical modulator. The preparation method provides abundant reciprocal lattice vectors by virtue of the aperiodicity of the optical superlattice to compensate the phase velocity difference between a microwave and an optical wave with different frequencies so as to force the electro-optic modulator to acquire a modulating action with a consistent effect under the drive of different-frequency microwaves applicable to a bandwidth.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method in the field of electro-optic modulation, in particular to a preparation method of an aperiodic broadband response electro-optic modulator. Background technique [0002] With the modern information society's requirements for high-speed and large-capacity communication systems, optoelectronic technology has developed rapidly. Using photons that are 1000 times higher than the electronic communication carrier frequency as the communication carrier frequency overcomes the limitations of microelectronics technology and achieves the purpose of more accurate, efficient and long-distance transmission of information. Therefore, electro-optic modulators, as "bridges" that closely combine electrons and photons, have been vigorously developed. [0003] Optical modulation is the process of loading an electrical signal onto a light wave and making the light wave measurable, such as phase, frequency, amplitude, and polar...
