10 Gbit/s operation of polarisation insensitive, strained InGaAsP/InGaAsP MQW electroabsorption modulator

Abstract

Polarisation-independent operation of a strained InGaAsP/InGaAsP multiquantum well electroabsorplion modulator is reported for the first time. A clearly open eye diagram is observed at 10 Gbit/s with scrambled polarisation state of input light. The chirp parameter is also reported for both TE and TM.
