“…In this paper, we report on proof-of-concept experiments demonstrating that non-resonant and yet highly-efficient silicon-based modulators that can be operated directly with binary sub-Volt output signals of standard field-programmable gate arrays (FPGA) without the need for digital-to-analog converters or drive amplifiers [9], [10]. These devices are realized on the silicon-organic hybrid (SOH) platform [11]- [13], which enables generation of a wide variety of modulation formats at lowest energy consumption [14]- [17].…”
