  "abstract": "We study theoretically the responsivity of optical modulators. For the case of linear response we find using perturbation theory an upper bound imposed upon the responsivity. For the case of two mode modulator we find a lower bound imposed upon the optical path required for achieving full modulation when the maximum birefringence strength is given.",
