The field of integrated- or guided-wave optics has experienced significant and continuous growth since its inception in the late 1960s. There has been a considerable increase in research and development activity in this field worldwide and some significant advances in the realization of working in tegrated optic devices and modules have been made in recent years. In fact, there have already been some commercial manufacturing and technical ap plications of such devices and modules. The guided-wave-acoustooptics involving Bragg interactions between guided optical waves and surface acoustic waves is one of the areas of in tegrated-optics that has reached some degree of scientific and technological maturity. This topical volume is devoted to an in-depth treatment of this emerging branch of science and technology. Presented in this volume are concise treatments on bulk-wave acoustooptics, guided-wave optics, and surface acoustic waves, and detailed studies of guided-wave acoustooptic Bragg diffraction in three promising material substrates, namely, LiNb0 , 3 ZnO/Si0 , and GaAs, the resulting wide band modulators and deflectors, 2 and applications. The chapters cover not only the basic principles and the oretical analysis, but also the design, fabrication, and measurement of the resulting devices and modules, and their applications.

Photonic devices lie at the heart of the communications revolution, and have become a large and important part of the electronic engineering field, so much so that many colleges now treat this as a subject in its own right. With this in mind, the author has put together a unique textbook covering every major photonic device, and striking a careful balance between theoretical and practical concepts. The book assumes a basic knowledge of optics, semiconductors and electromagnetic waves. Many of the key background concepts are reviewed in the first chapter. Devices covered include optical fibers, couplers, electro-optic devices, magneto-optic devices, lasers and photodetectors. Problems are included at the end of each chapter and a solutions set is available. The book is ideal for senior undergraduate and graduate courses, but being device driven it is also an excellent engineers' reference.

New devices are described which are based on optical waveguides on lithium niobate crystals, using the material anisotropy, including couplers, electro-optic modulator and light multiplexer, and optical deflector and scanner using collinear acousto-optic interaction between surface acoustic waves and optical surface waves. Complete theory for the propagating modes and coupled modes is presented. A new type of waveguide is presented for use with surface acoustic wave devices for real-time direct scanning and Fourier transform scanning of optical images, which introduces no additional transmission loss over that for unguided propagation. Test pattern results demonstrate the ability of this type of waveguiding to increase the transverse resolution of such scanners, and good correlation between theoretical and experimental results is shown.

In this research program, Guided-wave TeO2 Acousto-Optic Devices, the properties of surface acoustic waves on tellurium dioxide single crystal surfaces has been studied for its potential applications as acousto-optic signal processing devices. Personal computer based numerical method has been utilized for searching of useful surface acoustic waves and for theoretical investigation of the properties of surface acoustic waves on tellurium dioxide crystal substrate. Particular emphasis is on the finding and exploration of slow surface acoustic waves for long delay time signal processing applications. The investigation also includes study of surface acoustic wave interaction with laser beams after total internal reflection beneath the surface of the crystal substrate. The usefulness of such interaction for optical signal processing applications is also investigated in comparison to similar devices using the bulk slow shear waves in TeO2. Based on theoretical study results, several TeO2 substrate have ben prepared. Surface acoustic waves have been launched onto these sample substrate using edge coupled shear wave transducers. Experiments has been conducted for surface acoustic wave interaction with laser beams. Use of the acousto-optic probe, the surface acoustic wave velocity and field distribution have been obtained and compared to theoretical data. A 70 micro- second bulk slow shear wave acousto-optic beam deflector has been fabricated for comparison. Advantages of the surface acoustic wave beam deflector over bulk wave deflectors are considered. Potential applications as well as areas for further developments are recommended for a phase II development program.
