摘要：

Polymetric APC-CPW electrooptic modulators incorporating an inverted-rib waveguide structure were fabricated and tested for the first time. The inverted structure greatly simplifies fabrication procedures, and additionally improves propagation loss performance. Mach-Zehnder electrooptic modulators fabricated using this structure exhibited 6 dB of fiber-to-fiber insertion loss for 2.3-cm length and 6 V of driving voltage for a one-arm micro-strip electrode of 1.5-cm interaction length, at a wavelength of 1.55 mum.
