摘要：

A normally-on high-performance asymmetric Fabry-Perot modulator using the quantum confined Stark effect in GaAs quantum wells confined by short period AlAs-GaAs super-lattices is reported. The modulator is the first of this type to exhibit simultaneously low insertion loss (< 1.65 dB), large reflectivity change (> 68%) and practically infinite contrast at the Fabry-Perot resonance for an operating voltage swing of under 4 V.
