DEFINITION

Classification: 385/5

Light intensity dependent (e.g., nonlinear ef-fects):

(under subclass 4) Subject matter wherein the directional modulation is a function of the amplitude of the incident light wave itself.

(1) Note. Includes thermo-optic directional modulation, wherein deflection of a light wave output from an optical waveguide is varied in response to the intensity of applied thermal radiation.
