摘要：

The authors present a Fabry-Perot etalon using an electro-optic (EO) polymer material as the nonlinear medium. The two electrodes used to apply voltage across the EO polymer include an indium tin oxide electrode outside the etalon cavity and a low-absorption indium oxide electrode inside the etalon cavity. High finesse (similar to 234) and a low insertion loss (similar to 4 dB) have been obtained. An isolation ratio of 10 dB and similar to 10% modulation depth at 200 kHz with 5 V applied voltage have been achieved. These results indicate that EO polymer etalons are promising as spatial light modulators for information technology. (c) 2006 American Institute of Physics.
