摘要
A new design of optical phase modulator in SIMOX has been demonstrated, which allows duplication of active waveguides with a minimum requirement for external contacts and metallization, The device is based on a common cathode configuration and requires 56.5 mA at 1.65 V to produce a pi-phase shift. To confirm the experimental results, the same device structure has been modeled, and provided good agreement, with V-pi calculated to 1.70 V and 52.6 mA.
