ABSTRACT
In this work, an electro-optical polymer modulator with double-layered gold nanostrips, a polymer nanograting, and a metal substrate is proposed and designed. Interestingly, mode hybridization between the Fabry-Pérot (F-P) and anti-bonding modes is formed, and strongly depends on the nanograting size, which can be controllably modulated by an injection current. The simulation and calculation results show that the temperature sensitivity and large structural sensitivity for the polymer modulator could remain constant during the current-tuning process, and a near-zero reflectance and a low linewidth of 13.8â
nm in the red region corresponding to a high quality (Q) factor of 51 is achieved. In addition, a large redshift of 60.7â
nm and a super-high modulation depth of 424 are obtained at only 8 µA.
