Abstract
According to the magneto-optic (MO) perturbation theory, the coupled-mode equations for guided optical waves (GOWs) with microwave magneto-static waves (MSWs) in MO film waveguides are presented, which cannot only be used to analyze the MO modulation induced by MSW pulses, but also explain the optical pulse compression caused by chirped MSWs. The rectangular pulse modulation of continuous guided optical waves by magnetostatic forward volume waves (MSFVWs) excited under normal bias magnetic field is theoretically studied in detail. It is shown that: (1) the diffracted light pulse approximates to an isosceles trapezoid, which is in agreement with the experimental results, and the duration time and the flat-top response time are equal to the sum and difference between the width and transit time of the rectangular MSFVW pulse, respectively; (2) utilizing a small duty factor of MSFVW pulse helps to improve the modulating data rate, which is in inverse proportion to the transit time, and the relative peak intensity of the diffracted light pulse is less than the corresponding Bragg diffraction efficiency when the MSW duty factor is less than 0.5.
