Electro-optic polymer assisted optical switch based on silicon slot structure

One kind of electro-optic polymer assisted Mach-Zehnder optical switch based on silicon slot structure is presented. By filling electro-optic material in the void slot of the arms, direct electro-optic modulation can be introduced. Theoretical model and detailed analysis is given in this paper.
