  • Abstract
    Highly accurate computation of the microwave refractive index and impedance of coplanar waveguides on Ti:LiNbO/sub 3/, Mach-Zehnder external optical modulators is performed using the extended spectral domain approach. Narrowband millimeter-wave modulators based on these calculations have been designed, fabricated, and tested with an on-wafer, 0-40-GHz, optical and electrical probe station.<>
