Design of an Electro-Absorption Modulator Based on Graphene-on-Silicon Slot Waveguide

Compact high-performance electro-optic (EO) modulators are key elements for optical communications. An electro-absorption modulator is theoretically designed. Due to the introduction of graphene film over the silicon slot waveguide, the modulation efficiency is strongly improved. The effect of waveg...
