Description

The proposed effort is to develop and package a new ultra-compact, wideband, dual-output electro-optic LiNbO3 modulator for RF/photonic link applications on air platforms. The modulator will be capable of extremely high optical power handling (>500mW), and have dual outputs for use with balanced photo receiver which would enable a higher link gain, a lower noise figure and a higher spur free dynamic range. The modulator will be capable of 40GHz bandwidth, and compatible with future extended operation to 100GHz for new emerging systems. The modulator will be in a ruggedized package with less than 5 mm in height, a volume of
