  • Abstract
    Phosphorus doping in SiO2 buffer layer remarkably reduces the short-time DC drift (relaxation time 3 waveguide EO diffraction modulator. It is supposed that the drift reduction is associated with the gettering effect of P2O5 for mobile charges in the buffer layer and at the buffer/LiNbO3 interface.
