Description
We report on the performances of thin-film lithium niobate Mach-Zender electro-optical modulators manufactured using our standard foundry process and operating in the telecom C-band. We developed standard electro-optical modulators exhibiting a half-wave voltage of 3.2 V and an electro-optic bandwidth extending beyond 50 GHz. As a complementary option, we report CMOS voltage level folded modulators with half-wave voltage down to below 1 V, and bandwidths ranging from 8 to 25 GHz.
