  • Abstract
    A new silicon microstrip modulator for optoelectronic gating of microwave signals is described. Gating infrared pulses produces a small semiconductor region of high photoconductivity, which shunts the microstrip transmission line if special strip conductor structures are used. Theoretical and experimental results were found to agree fairly well.
