A rigorous approach for analyzing electro-optic devices on anisotropic uniaxial substrates

Abstract

The use of electro-optic devices is now of great interest in fiber optic sensors technology [1] as well as in microwave applications such as microstrip antennas design [2]. Therefore, it is clearly essential to investigate rigorous theoretical models for computer simulation tools to narrow down the possible design choices. Simulations can also be very helpful for saving time and providing a better prediction of the electro-optic systems features In this paper, we propose a rigorous approach for addressing these issues.
