Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) We have developed a four-channel 10 Gbit/s electroabsorption (EA) modulator array. We have introduced an innovative technique with an impedance-matched film (IPF) carrier to feed the electrical driving signal. The IPF carrier is made of an insulating polyimide film on which a coplanar waveguide is formed. We have achieved 10-Gbit/s operation for all channels with clear eye opening and with negligibly small crosstalk. Polarization independence is confirmed for each arrayed channel. Response times at 10 Gbit/s are less than 50 ps, which is much faster than the 1 ns rise and fall time of SOA gate.
