Abstract: | A new type of electrooptic modulator is presented. The modulation of optical waves is obtained by variation of one of the parameters ruling the excitation conditions of a guided mode during the coupling of an optical beam into a planar structure. The performances obtained with a prism coupler are discussed. |
