Our team has an exemplary track record in silicon-based modulators having demonstrated several world firsts, including the first 1 Gb/s carrier depletion modulator in 2004, now the industry standard, and the first 50 Gb/s carrier depletion modulator in 2012. In 2020, we demonstrated a fully integrated silicon MZI modulator with CMOS driver operating at 100 Gb/s OOK. More recently in 2025 we demonstrated 200 Gb/s OOK.
