Abstract

An electro-optic modulator is well suited for the detection of electromagnetic radiation. Bassen and Peterson1 used a bulk electro-optic crystal modulator to detect radiation collected at a dipole antenna, which is connected to electrodes on the crystal faces. Burns et al.2 have developed a polarization-independent interferometric channel waveguide modulator, in which the output decreased quadratically with voltage. Replacement of the bulk crystal with an integrated optical modulator of this type should produce a smaller detector, with a shorter dipole, operable over a wide dynamic range and having optical input and output through single-mode fibers.
