The superlinear carrier absorption enhanced silicon MOS micro-ring modulator

We demonstrate superlinear plasma absorption effects in silicon MOS micro-ring modulators, which have been harnessed to enhance the optical modulation depth. Operating speed up to 100 Gbaud with a of BER <1e-6 is achieved.
