Abstract
We demonstrate an integrated Si optical single-sideband (OSSB) modulator composed of a parallel dual-ring modulator (PDRM) and a quadrature hybrid coupler (QHC). Both the PDRM and the QHC are carefully designed for 30 GHz opearation, and their operations are verified by measurement. The Si OSSB modulator successfully generates a single sideband with larger than 15 dB suppression of the undesired sideband.
