Abstract

Chirp characteristics of silicon based Mach-Zehnder-interferometer (MZI) modulators with PIN diode and PN diode are fully analyzed, respectively. Simulation result shows that the chirp parameter is negative and influenced by the carrier absorption effect, the amplitude and frequency of applied sinusoidal modulating signals
