Abstract

An optical modulation element is configured to use a control optical signal to modulate a controlled optical signal. The optical modulation element comprises an optical transmission structure comprising an optical medium in which the controlled optical signal can propagate and a controller configured to modulate the controlled optical signal by changing the optical property using the control optical signal. The optical transmission structure is configured to at least partially absorb the control optical signal such that the absorption causes a change in an optical property of the optical medium. The optical property changes over a characteristic timescale in response to absorption of the control optical signal. The controller is configured to encode an input signal in the control optical signal. The input signal comprises one or more content portions, each comprising a plurality of signal maxima and having a duration less than the characteristic timescale.
