Abstract
The state of the art and future expectations are discussed regarding efficient semiconductor modulators for on-off keying and more advanced modulation formats for output bitrates of 100 Gb/s and above. The development of compact transmitters with laser and light-intensity modulator suitable for 100 Gb/s Ethernet is described, as well as future prospects for monolithically integrated transmitters for more advanced modulation formats.
