The proposed project will undertake the research, design, and development of key concepts and technologies for a very-low-voltage high-speed semiconductor electro-optic modulator. Low-voltage high-speed optical intensity modulators with voltage 100GHz, and low optical loss
Benefit: There are many applications for such modulators. Commercially, there are applications to data centers that need a lot of high-speed data connection cables and each cable will benefit from a high-speed low-voltage electro-optic modulator.
