Abstract

Excitation of leaky optical waves in optical waveguides on lithium niobate while total internal reflection of light beam with corresponding polarization from their surfaces has been investigated. The "mirror' configuration of waveguide operating elements on the ground of electrooptic and photorefractive interactions with leaky wave participation has been proposed and some results of their experimental investigations are presented. Key words: Optical waveguide, leaky waves, electrooptical effect, photorefractive effect, light modulation.
