Fortunately, the bandwidth of the femtosecond Surface Plasmon Polariton (SPP) pulses which have attracted much attention due to high packing densities and strong nonlinearities, is broad enough to fulfill the spectral modulation of the Ultra-WideBand (UWB) femtosecond laser pulses. In this dissertation, employing the SPP pulses launched by a Kretschmann configuration, whose reflectivity curve has the characteristic of the ultra-broad bandwidth, we observe a frequency-dependent loss with greater attenuation at the peak of the spectrum profile than in the wings both in theory and experiment, which is very useful for adequate spectral modulation. We can implement the arbitrary spectral modulation of the UWB femtosecond laser pulses, by designing the appropriate thickness of the gold film which determines the bandwidth and the attenuation depth of the SPP and adjusting the angle of incidence which can control the central wavelength. Also, in this dissertation, a new LiTaO3 Electro-Optical (EO) Modulator expected for 26 GHz employing the spontaneous Polarization Reversal Technology is studied, which provides opportunities to meet the increasing ba
