Plasmonic-organic hybrid (POH) modulators for OOK and BPSK signaling at 40 Gbit/s

We report on plasmonic-organic hybrid(POH) phase modulator generating error free (BER<;10
^-10
) BPSK signals at 40Gbit/s. In addition, generation and direct detection of 40Gbit/s OOK signals are discussed using POH Mach-Zehnder modulators on the transmitter side.
