Single silicon microring resonator Mach-Zehnder modulator with low-power consumption using thermo-optic effect

We demonstrate a single silicon microring resonator Mach-Zehnder modulator driven by thermo-optic effect. The proposed modulator was fabricated using CMOS process. The modulation characteristics show that the power consumption can be reduced to one fifteenth.
