Optical image modulator, optical apparatus including the same, and methods of manufacturing and operating the optical image modulator
First Claim
1. An optical image modulator comprising:
- an optical-electric unit;
an electric-optical unit;
a first light amount increasing unit which increases an amount of forward light emission of the electric-optical unit; and
a second light amount increasing unit disposed between the optical-electric unit and the first light amount increasing unit, the second light amount increasing unit further increasing the amount of forward light emission of the electric-optical unit,wherein current that is generated and modulated by the optical-electric unit pass through the first and second light amount increasing unit and flow into the electric-optical unit.

Abstract
Disclosed are an optical image modulator, an optical apparatus including the same, and methods of manufacturing and operating the optical image modulator. The optical image modulator includes a light amount increasing unit increasing the amount of forward light emission of an electric-optical unit. The light amount increasing unit includes a first reflector reflecting light, which travels from the inside of the electric-optical unit toward the optical-electric unit, to the electric-optical unit. The light amount increasing unit may further include a second light reflector reflecting light, which passes through the optical-electric unit without optical-electric conversion, to the optical-electric unit.
