ALEXANDRIA, Va., July 14 -- United States Patent no. 12,681,339, issued on July 14, was assigned to Quantum Transistors Technolgy (Binyamina, Israel).
"Electro-optic waveguide with polarization control" was invented by Moshe Tordjman (Haifa, Israel), Alexander Sherman (Ashdod, Israel) and Igal Bayn (New York).
According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "An optoelectronic device includes an optical waveguide disposed on a substrate. The waveguide includes a uniaxial electro-optical crystal having a principal axis parallel to a propagation axis of the waveguide. Electrodes are configured to apply an electric field to the electro-optical crystal so as to rotate a polarization of an optical wave as the optical ...
