Abstract :
The strong electroabsorption modulation possible using the quantum-confined Stark effect in Ge/SiGe quantum wells provides the working mechanism for efficient, CMOS-compatible photonic integrated modulators. We describe such a device employing a surface-normal asymmetric Fabry-Perot design.
