Title: Design and analysis of ultra-compact EO polymer modulators based on hybrid plasmonic microring resonators. Author: Lou F, Dai D, Thylen L, Wosinski L. Journal: Opt Express; 2013 Aug 26; 21(17):20041-51. PubMed ID: 24105551. Abstract: Ultra-compact EO polymer modulators based on hybrid plasmonic microring resonators are proposed, simulated and analyzed. Comparing with Si slot microring modulator, hybrid plasmonic microring modulator shows about 6-times enhancement of the figure of merit when the bending radius is around 510 nm, due to its much larger intrinsic quality factor in sub-micron radius range. Influences of the EO polymer height and Si height on the device's performance are analyzed and optimal design is given. When operating with a bias of 3.6 V, the proposed device has optical modulation amplitude of 0.8 and insertion loss of about 1 dB. The estimated power consumption is about 5 fJ/bit at 100 GHz.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
