FAQ
1.What types of optical modulators does Liobate offer?
Liobate offers a full range of optical modulators including intensity modulator, phase modulator, IQ modulator, and optical frequency comb devices — all built on thin-film lithium niobate technology for superior bandwidth and low drive voltage.
2.What is the advantage of a TFLN modulator over conventional lithium niobate modulators?
A TFLN modulator achieves significantly higher electro-optic bandwidth and lower half-wave voltage compared to bulk lithium niobate optical modulator devices, enabling higher data rates with lower power consumption in fiber optic modulator applications.
3.What bandwidth options are available for Liobate's intensity modulators?
Liobate's high-speed optical modulator lineup covers 20GHz, 40GHz, 67GHz, and 110GHz bandwidth options, with half-wave voltages below 3.0V across all configurations.
4.Can the IQ modulator be used in coherent communication systems?
Yes. Liobate's IQ modulator supports advanced modulation formats such as QPSK and QAM, making it well-suited for fiber optic modulators in coherent transmission and microwave photonics applications.
5.What is an optical frequency comb and what is it used for?
An optical frequency comb generates a series of precisely spaced optical frequency lines from a single laser source. Liobate's TFLN-based device supports 25GHz RF bandwidth and is used in spectroscopy, optical frequency synthesis, and precision optical measurement systems.
