Periodic domain inversion of electrooptic crystals makes quasi-velocity-matching possible between light and microwave velocities in collinear microwave light modulator and provides large phase modulation index enough for generating femtosecond light pulses. In this research, we investigated the control of modulation bandwidth and band-shape by changing domain inversion pattern on the electrooptic phase modulator from simple periodic rectangles. We found some useful patterns of domain inversion that are suitable for wideband flat microwave modulation and an efficient modulator for specific two microwave frequencies by theoretical calculation. Domain inversion of electrooptic crystals was investigated for precise domain control. Charge control was quite important, so we employed current monitoring system for automatic domain control. We investigated novel domain pattern for ultrafast light control. We developed a diffractive optical modutator at a microwave frequency of which operation is similar to AOM. A guided wave modulator developed with domain inversion was suitable for ultrafast light pulse generation. All devices were optical sideband generators at microwave frequencies and the spectral control with dispersive devices makes ultrafast light pulse control possible.

电光晶体的周期域反转使得共线微波光调制器中的光速和微波速度之间的准速度匹配成为可能，并提供足以产生飞秒光脉冲的大相位调制指数。在这项研究中，我们研究了通过改变电光相位调制器上简单周期性矩形的域反转模式来控制调制带宽和带形状。通过理论计算，我们发现了一些适用于宽带平坦微波调制的有用的畴反转模式以及针对特定两个微波频率的高效调制器。研究了电光晶体的畴反转以实现精确的畴控制。充电控制非常重要，因此我们采用电流监测系统进行自动域控制。我们研究了用于超快光控制的新颖域模式。我们开发了一种微波频率的衍射光学调制器，其操作类似于声光调制器。通过域反转开发的导波调制器适用于超快光脉冲生成。所有设备都是微波频率的光学边带发生器，并且色散设备的光谱控制使得超快光脉冲控制成为可能。
