Abstract :
Results showing the complete linear behaviour of LiNbO3 electro-optical phase modulators are presented. In a self-homodyne experiment the devices are investigated in the frequency and time domains at a data rate of 3.2 Gbit/s. The results of computer simulation are in good agreement with measurement results.
