Abstract

We propose a method for linearizing the response of depletion-mode silicon waveguide modulator based on the engineering of modal overlap with the depletion region. Simulations show suppression of nonlinearities in index-voltage transfer function, enabling SFDR of 116 dB/Hz2/3 in MZM configuration.
