Vector-component isolation of an arbitrary modulating electric field in zincblende electro-optic probes

Abstract

Analysis of the field-induced linear birefringence in zincblende crystals shows that one can obtain complete isolation of a single vector component of an arbitrary modulating electric field. For an optical probe beam path aligned parallel to the [110] direction and an optical probe beam polarization aligned parallel to the [11¯0] direction, the field-induced birefringence occurs only for the component of the modulating electric field aligned parallel to the [11¯0] direction. Measurements using a modulating electric field with known polarization and electro-optic probes machined from (110) gallium arsenide wafers demonstrate an alignment-limited isolation between orthogonal modulating electric field components of 17 dB.
