Semiconductor Optical Modulators

Semiconductor Optical Modulator is an integrated photonic device that modulates the intensity, phase, or frequency of light through electro-optic or thermo-optic effects in semiconductor materials, distinguished by its use of semiconductor heterostructures to enable compact, high-speed, and power-efficient modulation in on-chip optical communication systems.
