Abstract

See full text

A device for modulating light, wherein a layer of material having a superconducting state is placed in the optical path of a light source and is switched between transparent, non-superconducting and non-transparent, superconducting states by a modulation circuit, thereby providing optical data modulation. A cooling device is provided to maintain the layer of material in its superconducting state. The light source is maintained at a constant optical output which reduces spectral dispersion.
