Low-chirp push-pull microring modulators

We experimentally demonstrate a new concept of low-chirp push-pull silicon microring modulator at 10 Gb/s. Differential drive of two microring modulators nested in a Mach-Zehnder interferometer balances the chirp from two ring modulators, resulting in very low chirp.
