  • Abstract
    Silicon photonics may be a compact integration platform to implement power-efficient and high-bandwidth optical transceivers/transponders. Low-power silicon electro-optic modulators are crucial to achieve this goal. We review recently reported energy-efficient and high-speed silicon photonic modulators.
