Plasmonic Organic And Silicon Organic Hybrid Modulators For High Speed Signal Processing

Download or read book Plasmonic-Organic and Silicon-Organic Hybrid Modulators for High-Speed Signal Processing written by Ummethala, Sandeep and published by KIT Scientific Publishing. This book was released on 2024-06-26 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High-speed electro-optic modulators in silicon platform are introduced and experimentally verified. The devices rely on plasmonic and photonic slot waveguides and are combined with efficient organic electro-optic materials. The bandwidth limitation of conventional silicon-organic-hybrid modulators is circumvented by capacitive coupling of the microwave signal. An advanced terahertz link that upconverts data directly from a 360 GHz carrier to an optical carrier is demonstrated for the first time.
