Non-linear distortions in electro-optical phase modulators

Non-linear distortions in electro-optical phase modulators

Non-linear distortions induced by the voltage dependence of the guided mode field in electro-optical phase modulators are studied and quantified. Under very large signal modulation conditions, such distortions could impact analog link performance.
