Nonlinear Distortions in Plasmonic Mach-Zehnder Modulators
2018 International Topical Meeting on Microwave Photonics (MWP)(2018)
摘要
We report the first experimental characterization of intermodulation distortions in ultrafast (> 325 GHz) plasmonic-organic hybrid Mach-Zehnder modulators. The third-order input intercept point (IIP3) measured for a 25 μm-long plasmonic modulator reaches 18.9 dBm, very close to the value of 19 dBm obtained for a commercial high-performance GaAs modulator. The plasmonic approach may provide ultrafast (hundreds GHz speeds), ultracompact and highly linear modulators for novel microwave photonics applications.
