Abstract
Electro-optic (EO) polymer cladding modulators are an option for low-power high-speed optical interconnects on a silicon platform. A novel Mach Zehnder modulator design is demonstrated using an EO polymer clad device. Modulators were designed and fabricated with both silicon nitride and Si waveguides and demonstrated at high speed (20 GHz). A Vpi*L as low as 3 Vcm is measured on initial devices. An optimized device could provide a Vpi*L less than 1 Vcm enabling devices with 1 V drive voltages, ~100 fF total device capacitance and less than 2 dB optical insertion loss
