Abstract
Antenna-coupled LiBbO/sub 3/ electrooptic modulators can overcome the material dispersion which would otherwise prevent sensitive high-frequency operation. The authors previously demonstrated the concept with a phase modulator at X-band. They have extended this demonstration to a narrowband 60-GHz phase modulator and broadband amplitude modulator designs at 60 and 94 GHz, respectively.<>
