Abstract
Exact solutions for millimeter-wave propagation in an optically contro lled rectangular semiconductor waveguide were presented. This was impl emented by strictly solving the continuity equation that the photoindu ced carriers hold and by finite-difference-time-domain (FDTD) modeling for the wave propagation in the waveguide. The laser intensity depend ence of the millimeter-wave signal's amplitude and phase shift was obt ained. Excellent agreement between numerical results and experiments w as found.
