High speed traveling wave electrooptic intensity modulator with a doped PIN semiconductor junction

Conference ·
OSTI ID:207575
A high-electrooptic-efficiency Mach-Zehnder intensity modulator is demonstrated with a bandwidth exceeding 40 GHZ. The 1 mm-long modulator has a switching voltage comparable to undoped semiconductor designs of much greater length.
