DOI: 10.3390/nano11020499
Abstract: Driving signal reflection on traveling wave electrodes (TWEs) is a critical issue in Mach–Zehnder modulators. Fabrication variation often causes a random variation in the electrode impedance and the signal reflection, which induces modulation characteristics variation.… read more here.
