Figure 15 b shows modulator response as function of the dc bias voltage when driven by 3 GHz voltage signals of amplitude from 1 mV to 100 mV also represented is the RTD-EAM dc I -V characteristic. The rf photo-detected power increased by about 15 dB when the device dc bias point moved from the peak to the valley region at driving amplitudes as low as 50 mV. An indication the modulator can be driven by very low voltage signals due to its intrinsic built-in electrical amplifier.

RTD-EAM high frequency optical characterisation employed a microwave synthesized signal generator with a maximum output of 20 dBm and an upper frequency limit of 26 GHz Figueiredo 2000 . Figure 16 a shows the modulation depth as function of the light wavelength induced by the transition between the two PDC regions produced by a square signal with peak-to-peak voltage slight higher than AVVP 0.8 V. The devices were dc biased in the valley region in order to minimize thermal effects and avoid self-oscillations. Modulation depths up to 28 dB were measured on devices with active areas around 800 m2 more than 10 dB superior to the values observed on the AlGaAs GaAs devices. The modulator response up to 26 GHz driving signals for two power values is shown in Fig. 16 b .
