Free space millimeter wave-coupled electro-optic high speed nonlinear polymer phase modulator with in-plane slotted patch antennas.
We report in-plane slotted patch antenna-coupled electro-optic phase modulators with a carrier-to-sideband ratio (CSR) of 22 dB under an RF power density of 120 W/m(2) and a figure of merit of 2.0 W(-1/2) at the millimeter wave frequencies of 36-37 GHz based on guest-host type of second-order nonlinear polymer SEO125. CSR was improved more than 20 dB by using a SiO(2) protection layer. We demon...
متن کاملDeposited silicon high-speed integrated electro-optic modulator.
We demonstrate a micrometer-scale electro-optic modulator operating at 2.5 Gbps and 10 dB extinction ratio that is fabricated entirely from deposited silicon. The polycrystalline silicon material exhibits properties that simultaneously enable high quality factor optical resonators and sub-nanosecond electrical carrier injection. We use an embedded p(+)n(-)n(+) diode to achieve optical modulatio...
متن کاملPhotodefinable electro-optic polymer for high-speed modulators
Direct waveguide definition of a negative photoresist (SU8) containing tricyanovinylidenediphenylaminobenzene (TCVDPA) as electro-optic (EO) chromophore, has been demonstrated for the first time. This was possible by utilising the chromophore low absorption window in the UV region allowing crosslinking of the host polymer by exposing to UV light followed by thermal curing. TCVDPA was modified b...
متن کاملHigh-q Microphotonic Electro-optic Modulator
A microphotonic mm-wave modulator using simultaneous RF and optical resonance in an electro-optic medium is presented. Theory and simulation of modulator operation is discussed, and experimental results demonstrating modulation using simultaneous resonance in the mm-wave range are reported.

متن کاملReplica-molded electro-optic polymer Mach–Zehnder modulator
A Mach–Zehnder electro-optic polymer amplitude modulator is fabricated by a simple and high-throughput soft-stamp replica-molding technique. The modulator structure incorporates the highly nonlinear and stable chromophore, AJL8, doped in amorphous polycarbonate. Single-arm phase-retardation results in a halfwave voltage sVpd of 8.4 V at 1600 nm. The on/off extinction ratio is better than 19 dB,...
