摘要
In this work we theoretically investigate quantum confined Stark effect of intersubband transitions in asymmetric Ge/SiGe quantum wells for intensity modulation in the mid-infrared. Our calculations show that extinction ratios up to 1 dB and modulation speeds of several tens of GHz could be obtained in 100 mu m long waveguides.(c) 2022 Optica Publishing Group under the terms of the Optica Open Access Publishing Agreement
