Abstract
Resonant and non-resonant modulator configurations are compared for operation with the lowest drive voltage. The ring-assisted Mach-Zehnder modulator is shown to offer a steep slope in the transfer function while delivering an open eye diagram. This enables 220GBd 2PAM plasmonic modulation with record low 0.5Vp.
