ABSTRACT Radiant energy is caused to modulate in phase and frequency in a single mode optical fiber by means of a relatively movable, spatially perio- dic perturbation. Specifically, an optical grating is mounted on the clad- ding at a control zone near the core of the fiber. The control zone may be formed by removing a portion of the cladding to form a reduced thickness cladding portion. The grating has its crests oriented generally normal to the optic axis of the optical fiber and the grating is caused to move rela- tive to the optic axis, for example by sliding along the optical fiber. A shear mode piezoelectric transducer may be used to cause the necessary movement.
