Abstract:
An electro-optic modulator includes an input waveguide, a beam splitter connected to the input waveguide, a modulation arm that is disposed on each branch of the beam splitter and modulates a signal. Each modulation arm is correspondingly disposed with a first layer electrode and a second layer electrode. The first layer electrode is a high-frequency traveling wave electrode and is configured to change carrier concentration in the modulation arm, the second layer electrode is a direct current electrode having an inductor function, and an inductor formed in the second layer electrode is connected to the first layer electrode. The electro-optic modulator has functions of a bias tee, so that integration of the electro-optic modulator can be improved without affecting its performance. High-density packaging layout difficulty and cabling pressure can be effectively reduced, and cabling and packaging of a multi-channel high-speed signal on a base board can be implemented.

Claim (Index 1):
An electro-optic modulator, comprising:\n an input waveguide; a beam splitter connected to the input waveguide; a modulation arm disposed on each branch of the beam splitter and configured to modulate a signal; a beam combiner connected to each branch of the beam splitter and configured to combine signals; and an output waveguide connected to the beam combiner, wherein each modulation arm is correspondingly disposed with a double-layer electrode comprising,\n a first layer electrode that is high-frequency traveling wave electrode configured to change carrier concentration in the modulation arm, and \n a second layer electrode that is a direct current electrode having an inductor function and comprises an inductor connected to the first layer electrode.
