Novel optical single-sideband suppressed-carrier modulator using a bidirectionally-driven electro-optic modulator

We introduce a novel optical single-sideband suppressed-carrier modulator design using a standard Mach-Zehnder electro-optic modulator and passive components that is bias and chirp-parameter insensitive. Up to 25 dB sideband suppression and 19 dB carrier attenuation are experimental demonstrated.
