Optimized Silicon QPSK Modulator With 64-Gb/s Modulation Speed

We demonstrate a compact silicon quadrature phase-shift keying (QPSK) modulator consisting of two nested Mach-Zehnder interferometers with a size of 4.5-mm<sup>2</sup>. The V<sub>11</sub> &#x00B7; L of the modulator is 1.4 V &#x00B7; cm with an insertion loss of 8 dB....
