  • Abstract
    We have demonstrated a quantum-well waveguide modulator with large (7:1) on/off ratio at low bias voltage (less than 1V) compatible with high-speed electronics. The unique structure of this device permits bistable and other self-electro-optic-effect operations without an external power supply.
