Direct RF to Optical Link Based on Film Bulk Acoustic Wave Resonators (FBAR)

Siddiqui, Aleem M.; Moore, Jeremy M.; Stanfield, Paul S.; Camacho, Ryan; Eichenfield, Matt

We demonstrate conversion of a 10GHz radio frequency signal directly to fiber optics. A Fabry-Perot cavity formed between a fiber tip and an AlN-film acoustic resonator electrode enables resonantly enhanced phase modulation of back-reflected light.
