ABSTRACT:
Prior art techniques for velocity matching the optical wave and the modulating electrical wave in traveling wave, electrooptic devices includes the use of phase reversals and intermittent interaction. This results in a device whose frequency response includes a single peak. It has been discovered that by reducing the length of the interaction intervals between the electrical and optical systems, a multiplicity of harmonically related frequency peaks can be obtained. Furthermore, by combining the phase reversal and intermittent interaction techniques in a common device, the available bandwidth can be doubled.
