  • Mounting assembly for modulators
    Patent number: 5835254
    Abstract: A mounting assembly (50) for an electro-optic modulator array (10) is disclosed. Electro-optic modulator array (10) is mounted on a ledge (52) of wiring board (53). A recess (51) in wiring board (53) allows electrical connection of electrodes (14,15) from both a first surface of electro-optic modulator array (10) to a first side of wiring board (53), and from a second surface of electro-optic modulator array (10) to a second side of wiring board (53). A resilient adhesive (54) is used to attach electro-optic modulator array (10) to board (53). Wiring electro-optic modulator array (10) to both sides of wiring board (53) allows full utilization of the PLZT substrate and hence, higher light beam density per unit length.
