Patent number: 7361883
Abstract: The present invention relates to a photonic mixer device with a photosensitive layer, at least two modulation gates (3, 4, 103, 104, 203, 204, 303, 304, 403, 404) and at least two readout electrodes (1, 2, 101, 102, 201, 202, 301, 302, 401, 402, 501, 502, 601, 602) connected to the photosensitive layer, the modulation gates (3, 4, 103, 104, 203, 204, 303, 304, 403, 404) being able to be connected to a modulation device which raises and lowers the potential of the modulation gates relative to one another and relative to the preferably constant potential of the readout electrodes corresponding to a desired modulation function.
