ABSTRACT:
A piezoelectric fiber optic phase modulator having a mount at a nodal point of the vibratory system of the modulator. The modulator is excited with an electric field applied in a direction parallel to the axis of the modulator or perpendicular to the radial direction of movement of the modulator. In contrast to the mere hollow cylinder modulator of the related art, the modulator of this invention has a web or center structure integral with the inside surface of the cylinder. The modulator here has a rugged mount, low absorption vibration and negligible harmonics at the mount for efficient and high Q functioning, and has rugged electrical connections for dependable operation.
