Wideband Acousto-Optic Bragg Diffraction in LiNbO3 Waveguide and Applications

  • Chapter
Guided-Wave Acousto-Optics

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Electronics and Photonics ((SSEP,volume 23))

Abstract

Chapter 2 has presented the basic principles and analytical techniques for bulk-wave Acousto-Optic (AO) interactions. In this chapter, a detailed treatment of wide-band AO Bragg diffraction in a planar LiNbO3 waveguide, the resulting devices, and some potential applications is given. The sequence of presentation for the content of the Chapter now follows. First, the basic configuration and mechanisms for planar guided-wave AO Bragg diffraction from a single Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) in a LiNbO3 waveguide and the resulting diffraction efficiency and frequency response are analyzed in detail using the coupled-mode technique. As a comparison some calculated and measured performances with the other two potential materials, namely GaAs and nonpiezoelectrics such as thermally-oxidized Si or AS2S3, are also discussed. The key parameters of the resulting AO Bragg modulators and deflectors or cells and their inherent limitations are then identified and discussed. The coupled-mode technique is thereafter extended to analyze AO Bragg diffraction from multiple SAWs. The unified theory developed is applied to the two wide-band device configurations, namely, multiple tilted SAWs and phased SAWs. Subsequently, a number of SAW transducer configurations for realization of wide-band Bragg cells are described and compared. Design, fabrication, testing, and measured performance of wide-band AO Bragg cells in y-cut LiNbO3 substrates are also presented.
