Abstract:We investigate the performances of two slot-waveguide modulator designs using optical and electrical simulations. The proposed designs utilize high confinement Si slot waveguides in combination with LiNbO3 (LN). This allows for efficient modulation due to the strong Pockels effect of the LN and the strong electric field of the slot-waveguide.
