Abstract

Many practical modulator materials include combinations of electrooptically induced birefringence, optical activity, and/or Faraday rotation. Thus there exists a need for a procedure to design and analyze devices fabricated with materials exhibiting any or all of these effects. A simple method employing an extension of the general Jacobi method is introduced for determining properties of the two allowed eigenpolarizations for an arbitrary direction of propagation in a general lossless, electrooptic, and gyrotropic medium.
