Among the various elements of the silicon photonics platform electro-optic IQ modulators play
an important role. In this book silicon-organic hybrid (SOH) integration is used to realize
electro-optic IQ modulators for complex signal processing. Leveraging the high nonlinearity of
organic materials SOH IQ modulators provide low energy consumption for high-speed data
transmission and frequency shifting. Furthermore the device design is adapted for commercial
foundry processes.
