An effective method for improving diffraction performance of magnetostatic backward volume wave-based magneto-optic Bragg cells by using an appropriately tilted bias magnetic field in YIG film plane

The universal magneto-optic (MO) coupled-mode equations for magnetostatic waves (MSWs) and guided optical waves (GOWs) under arbitrarily tilted bias magnetic fields are presented for the first time and, as an example, applied to the noncollinear Stokes interaction between the incident TE₀-mode light and magnetostatic backward volume wave (MSBVW) excited by single-element microstrip line transducer in yttrium–iron–garnet (YIG) film. Our calculation indicates that, for the case of magnetization parallel to the MSBVW propagation direction, the diffraction efficiency (DE) is equal to the mode-conversion efficiency of the diffracted lights (MCDE) and the calculated curve of relative DE for the MSBVW-based MO Bragg cell in pure YIG waveguide is in good agreement with the experimental data. In contrast, the diffraction performance can be greatly improved by optimizing the bias magnetic field and the DE gain can be increased by 6.3 dB in the tangentially magnetized film. The angular dependences of the DE and the corresponding Bragg angle upon the magnetization direction are also discussed in the paper.     

Mode Conversion and Diffraction of Guided Optical Waves from Magnetostatic Waves under Inclined Bias Magnetic Field

The noncollinear interaction of guided optical waves with magnetostatic waves under inclined bias magnetic field is theoretically studied in detail. Similar approach can also be applied to the collinear interaction. Calculation results indicate that the diffraction efficiency (DE) in magnitude is equal to the mode-conversion efficiency (MCE) under vertical bias magnetic field, but they differ greatly under inclined bias magnetic field. By comparison to the case of vertical magnetization, the DE or the MCE can be greatly increased under inclined magnetic field. The characteristic of the DE curves obtained is basically in agreement with the experimental result.``

Characteristics of microwave magneto-optic modulation based on magnetostatic waves

According to the magneto-optic (MO) perturbation theory, the coupled-mode equations for guided optical waves (GOWs) with microwave magneto-static waves (MSWs) in MO film waveguides are presented, which cannot only be used to analyze the MO modulation induced by MSW pulses, but also explain the optical pulse compression caused by chirped MSWs. The rectangular pulse modulation of continuous guided optical waves by magnetostatic forward volume waves (MSFVWs) excited under normal bias magnetic field is theoretically studied in detail. It is shown that: (1) the diffracted light pulse approximates to an isosceles trapezoid, which is in agreement with the experimental results, and the duration time and the flat-top response time are equal to the sum and difference between the width and transit time of the rectangular MSFVW pulse, respectively; (2) utilizing a small duty factor of MSFVW pulse helps to improve the modulating data rate, which is in inverse proportion to the transit time, and the relative peak intensity of the diffracted light pulse is less than the corresponding Bragg diffraction efficiency when the MSW duty factor is less than 0.5.
