摘要
We developed a high- speed and highly efficient depletion-type Si optical modulator ( Si-MOD) with a pn junction by applying a p-type-doped strained SiGe layer, which was stacked on a lateral pn junction-type Si-MOD. We designed an optimum Si-MOD, which is one of the most efficient Si-MODs with a pn junction, and demonstrated highly efficient modulations of 0.67 and 0.81V center dot cm for V pi L at dc reverse bias voltages of-0.5 and-2V(dc), respectively. We also demonstrated a high-speed operation of 25 Gbps for the Si-MOD at a wavelength of around 1.3 mu m. (C) 2018 The Japan Society of Applied Physics
