Abstract
The relation between symmetric and asymmetric Fabry-Perot cavities is investigated in the context of electro-absorptive semiconductor reflection modulators. The use of cavities of intermediate asymmetry is proposed in order to produce high-contrast modulation either at lower voltage than in the original asymmetric case, or in materials with lower absorption coefficient such as bulk III-V semiconductors and InP-based multiple quantum wells
