Abstract
The magneto-optic spatial light modulator (MOSLM) can modulate amplitude, phase, and polarization of optical wave front at high speed. However, past MOSLM requires large driving current. To overcome the disadvantage, we have developed the MOSLM with PZT layer driven by electric field and external magnetic field. The effective structure of the voltage-driven MOSLM was also investigated using finite element simulation. A magneto photonic crystal(MPC), which consists of dielectric mirror and magnetic defect layer, can largely enhance MO effect. The stress distribution calculation of MPC structure with good stress distribution and a large Faraday rotation was done based on a structure of a thin MO film.
