Abstract

In this work, we experimentally demonstrate a single-drive push-pull Silicon Mach-Zehnder modulator with more than 48 GHz modulation bandwidth and V pi L approximate to 2.3 V.cm, compatible with standard Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) process. The modulator also presents S-11 < -15 dB up to 50 GHz. (AU)
