Abstract :
The authors demonstrate the first field-induced guide/antiguide modulators (FIGAMs) on InP-based materials. Good electrical isolation between electrodes was obtained by implanting through the quaternary waveguide and 15 dB on/off ratio has been achieved. Bit error rate measurements for system applications are also reported
