摘要
An optical modulator device and method, including and utilizing: a first optical waveguide arm including one or more optical phase shifters, e.g., pn junctions, and configured to receive a first bias voltage Vbias1; and a second optical waveguide arm including one or more optical phase shifters, e.g., pn junctions, and configured to receive a second bias voltage Vbias2; wherein the first bias voltage Vbias1 and the second bias voltage Vbias2 are dissimilar, such that the first optical waveguide arm and the second optical waveguide arm exhibit a same phase modulation. Vbias1 and Vbias2 are selected such that the corresponding slopes Vπ of the associated phase shift versus applied bias voltage curves are equal. The optical modulator device further includes a driver coupled to the first optical waveguide arm and the second optical waveguide arm and including a current offset control circuit operable for providing Vbias1 and Vbias2.
