Abstract: (2094 Views)
In this paper, a silicon Mach-Zehnder modulator based on carrier depletion in a lateral PN junction is simulated to optimize its performance at 1310nm telecommunication wavelength. The modulation efficiency 1.55V.cm and phase shifter loss 1.89dB/cm in 2V bias are achieved. Here, the power consumption of the modulator 1.08pJ/bit is estimated. The measured extinction ratio is also obtained for the 50Gb/s data rate under a 2.3Vpp drive voltage. This results are comparable with the demonstrated modulators at 1555nm wavelength.
