A multi-layer device for modulating and reflecting light. The device is formed of an electro-optic layer with a variable index of refraction sandwiched between two other layers having a pre-determined index of refraction. An electric field applied across the electro-optic layer controls the index of refraction of the layer and thus the reflectance and transmittance of light through the multi-layer stack. The device can therefore be used as a mirror, window, beam-splitter, shutter, light modulator, or other optical logic element.
