Abstract
We experimentally demonstrate the influence of the DC Kerr effect in silicon photonic Mach-Zehnder modulators (MZMs) and the ability to optimize the combined effects of plasma-dispersion and DC Kerr to achieve linear transfer characteristics and thus demonstrate suitability for microwave photonic links and digital modulation formats such as multilevel pulse amplitude modulation. PN and PiN doped m...
