Analysis of Optical and Electrical Tradeoffs of Traveling-Wave Depletion-Type Si Mach-Zehnder Modulators for High-Speed Operation

Fundamental limiting factors regarding high-speed performance of broadband depletion-type silicon (Si) Mach-Zehnder modulators (MZMs) are studied. Optical and electrical measurements of MZMs with traveling wave electrodes (TWE) reveal significant dependences between optoelectrical bandwidth and desi...
