Abstract :
The paper reports on the free carrier absorption (FCA) loss associated with p-i-n silicon-on-insulator (SOI) phase modulator at λ = 1.55 μm. The analyses include the effect of various doping concentration and injected free carrier concentration on the FCA. The simulations are realized utilizing the 2-D semiconductor simulation package SILVACO.
