Abstract

A magneto-optic spatial light modulator driven by an electric field is fabricated by using the electrostrictive effect of [Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3] (PZT) thin film. As the stress field induced by the PZT thin film reduces the anisotropy energy of the structured garnet film, we find that the pixels can be easily switched in accordance with or without the small external bias field. When peak-to-peak 8 V at the X and Y conductors is applied with the external bias field of 40 Oe at the fabricated device, the selected pixel is switched independently.
