To have polymer modulators ubiquitous across the industry, key milestones are being achieved at record pace: advanced and mature electro-optic polymers, simple and standard fabrication in large scale volume, and packaged modulator devices as part of the high-performance “vehicle” with pluggable optical transceivers. The polymer industry for fiber communications is growing quickly. With the correct positioning for scale, volume, and performance, electro-optic polymers are poised very well to enable and scale the Internet and optical network architectures to be much more competitive in the near future.
