"acoustic modulator using a thin wafer of lithium niobate... coated with two transparent electrodes... piezoelectric... crystal lattice at the heart of its atomic structure changes shape... vibrates at very high, very predictable and very controllable frequencies... strongly modulates light; with the addition of a couple polarizers, this new modulator effectively turns light on and off several million times a second"
