Abstract: We theoretically and experimentally demonstrate a ring-assisted Mach–Zehnder interferometer modulator for intensity and phase modulation, leveraging both Mach–Zehnder modulator and single microring modulator. Differential drive of two microring modulators nested in a Mach–Zehnder interferometer offers… read more here.

Abstract: Silicon photonics ring resonators in rib waveguide configuration are among the most important components for wavelength-division-multiplexed communication networks. While the rib waveguide enables simple electrical connectivity in microring modulators and add-drop multiplexers, it also results… read more here.
