摘要：
Plasmonic electro-optic modulators might play a pivotal role in the development of compact efficient communication devices. Here, we introduce a novel electro-optic modulator based on a plasmonic Bragg microcavity and a pockels active material. We investigate detailed design and optimization protocols of the proposed structure. With 2D scanning of geometrical parameters, an extinction ratio of 19.8 dB, insertion loss of 2.8 dB and modulation depth of 0.99 with a driving voltage of +/- 5 V are obtained.
