摘要
In this paper realization of magnetostatic forward volume wave (MSFVW) based guided-wave magneto-optic (MO) Bragg cells and their applications to communications and signal processings are reported. First, Bragg diffraction of guided optical waves from the MSFVW in a noncollinear coplanar geometry is analyzed. The design of microstrip line transducers that facilitate wide-band MO Bragg diffraction with electronically tunable microwave carrier frequencies (2.0 to 12.0 GHz) is then briefly discussed. Subsequently, the experimental results obtained with the resulting Bragg cells in both pure and bismuth-doped YIG waveguides and a comparison to the theoretical predictions are presented. Finally, applications of the MO Bragg cells to light beam modulation, scanning/switching, and RF spectral analysis are presented in detail. © 1990 IEEE
