Abstract

We measured frequency responses of half-wave voltage V _π and chirp parameter α ₀ of LiNbO ₃ modulators below 1 GHz range using optical heterodyne scheme with an acousto-optic modulator. The coefficients of variation of the measured values of V _π and α ₀ are 0.2 % and 2 %, respectively. We observed strong dependency of V _π and α ₀ on the frequency.
