Abstract

The invention discloses a device for selecting pulses comprising an optical waveguide for guiding the optical radiation along an axis; comprising a first electro-optical modulator designed to modulate the optical transparency of the waveguide; comprising a second electro-optical modulator designed to modulate the optical transparency of the waveguide, wherein the first modulator and the second modulator are arranged one after the other on the axis of the waveguide, and further comprising at least one control circuit designed to actuate the first modulator and the second modulator at offset times, and characterized in that a substrate of a semiconductive material is provided, the waveguide and the at least one control circuit are arranged on the substrate.
