Abstract

We demonstrate a very efficient high speed silicon modulator with an ultralow π-phase-shift voltage-length product VπL = 1.4V-cm. The device is based on a Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) fabricated using 0.25μm thick silicon-on-insulator (SOI) waveguide with offset lateral PN junctions. Optimal carrier-depletion induced index change has been achieved through the optimization of the overlap region of carriers and photons. The 3dB bandwidth of a typical 1mm long device was measured to be more than 12GHz. An eye-diagram taken at a transmission rate of 12.5Gb/s confirms the high speed capability of the device.
