摘要：
This paper describes the design and fabrication of a slot waveguide ring-assisted Mach-Zehnder modulator (RAMZM) on the InP membrane on Silicon (IMOS) platform. The low-frequency characterization of this modulator reveals that it can achieve a V-pi L-pi product as low as 5.1 V.mm and an extinction ratio equal to 12 dB. The 3-dB electro-optical bandwidth of this modulator is measured to be 8.5 GHz. This paper discusses working principles, design, fabrication, measurements, analysis of the electrical and electro-optic performance, and the prospects of this modulator.
