The LNP6118 is a broadband LiNbO3 z-cut phase modulator designed to support operation at 1310 nm and 1550 nm. The electro-optic response (S21) is smooth from DC to 40 GHz. The input fiber is polarization-maintaining (PM), and the output fiber is standard single mode fiber; both terminated with FC/PC connectors. The input FC/PC connector key is aligned to the slow axis of the PM fiber, which is in turn aligned with the extraordinary mode of the chip. The RF input connector is a field-replaceable 1.85 mm (V) connector. A separate low-frequency phase modulator, in series with the RF phase modulator, is available through a separate set of pins.
The LNP6118 includes an internal polarizer that is aligned with the extraordinary mode of the chip.
1. High modulation bandwidth: supports high-frequency signal modulation, suitable for high-speed optical communication and signal processing.
2. Low insertion loss: Optimized design reduces the energy loss of the optical signal during modulation.
3. High phase modulation accuracy: provides accurate phase control to ensure the stability and accuracy of signal modulation.
4. Wide wavelength range: suitable for a variety of wavelengths (such as C-band, L-band), compatible with a variety of optical systems.
5. Compact design: Compact package for easy integration into complex optical systems.
6. Low drive voltage: Reduces power consumption and is suitable for high energy efficiency applications.

a. The modulator is designed for use at the specified wavelengths. Using the modulator at other wavelengths may cause an increase in the optical loss that is not covered under warranty. In some cases, this loss can be temporary; for instance, the increase in loss caused by shorter wavelengths can usually be reversed by heating the modulator to 80 °C for an hour.
b. Extra care should be taken while aligning the polarization state of the optical input to avoid excess optical power from being launched into the ordinary mode, which will be absorbed by the polarizer and can damage the modulator.
