Abstract
The recent growth in single-mode lightwave technology for communications, sensor and signal processing has heightened the prospects for practical application of TrLiNbO3 guided-wave devices. For telecommunications applications, long wavelength (λ=1.3μm–1.6μm) devices with low fiber-coupled insertion loss will be required. Here we summarize our recent work on long wavelength Ti:LiNbO3 waveguide high-speed switch/modulators, tunable filters, polarization controllers and splitters, and short, high-peak power pulse generators.
