· Ultrathin silicon and electrooptic (EO) polymer hybrid waveguide modulators have been designed and fabried. The waveguide consists of a silicon core with a thickness of 30 nm and a width of 2 μm. The cladding is an EO polymer. Optical mode calculation reveals that 55% of the optical field around the silicon extends into the EO polymer in the TE mode.
