Abstract

We study the frequency chirp properties of graphene-on-silicon electro-absorption modulators (EAMs). By experimentally measuring the chirp of a 100 µm long single layer graphene EAM, we show that the optoelectronic properties of graphene induce a large positive linear chirp on the optical signal gen...
