Ultra-low power fiber-coupled gallium arsenide photonic crystal cavity electro-optic modulator

We demonstrate electro-optic modulation in a GaAs laterally doped photonic crystal cavity diode with ultra-low switching energy of several fJ/bit. A short non-radiative carrier lifetime allows fast switching with an upper threshold of 100 GHz.
