Title:
PHASE-CONTROLLED LIGHT FSK MODULATOR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/034766
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
To provide an optical modulator capable of controlling the phase of a USB signal and the phase of an LSB signal of an optical FSK modulated signal. A modulated signal is applied to a main Mach-Zehnder electrode (or an electrode C) (11) of a main Mach-Zehnder waveguide (MZc) (8) thereby to switch the USB signal and the LSB signal so that the FSK modulation can be made. In order to control the phase of the optical signal to be outputted from the main Mach-Zehnder waveguide (MZc) (8), a bias voltage is applied to the main Mach-Zehnder electrode (11) thereby to control the phases, as have not been considered in the prior art, of the USB signal and the LSB signal so that the FSK modulation having the arranged phases can be achieved.
