electro-optic modulator

  • 1Electro-optic modulator — (EOM) is an optical device in which a signal controlled element displaying electro optic effect is used to modulate a beam of light. The modulation may be imposed on the phase, frequency, amplitude, or direction of the modulated beam. Modulation… …
