Paper Abstract
New method of high speed temporal modulation of infra-red.
wave beams, reflected from thin films of semiconductor's plasma
with free carriers, is proposed. The physical foundations of such
method, based on non-linear properties of free carriers plasma in
these films, show the possibilities of elaboration of high-speed
tunable modulators and polarizers. The reflection of continuous
wave beam from the film with tunable reflection coefficient leads
to pulses shaping, the pulse duration being as small as 1 nsec.
The electric power, necessary for tuning of such modulator, is as
small as (formula in PDF)
