Abstract

An electro-optic material has first and second regions formed therein. The optic axes of the first and second regions are antiparallel and define a domain inversion pattern. The difference in refractive index between the first and second regions is a function of an electric field applied thereto. The difference in refractive index enables spatial light phase modulators and refractive optical devices having electrical control to be formed.
