Spot size effects in asymmetric fabry-perot electroabsorption modulators

Spot size effects in asymmetric fabry-perot electroabsorption modulators

Simulations of an asymmetric Fabry-Perot modulator reveal degradation of the contrast ratio as the incident spot size is decreased. The minimum practical spot size imposes constraints on the modulator dimensions and hence device capacitance.
