Abstract :
Analytic expressions for the electric field and refractive-index distribution are derived for guidedwave electro-optic structures using strip electrodes. The electric-field distribution is calculated considering the anisotropy of the electro-optic medium, and plots of the resulting field and index distribution are presented for LiNbO, substrates.
