ABSTRACT:
In a reflective optical modulator light enters through an optical waveguide into a detunable optical resonator which couples it back into the optical waveguide, the modulation being effected by detuning the resonator. The resonator includes the end face of the optical waveguide through which the light enters and is coupled back, and a first reflective surface disposed opposite this face.
