摘要：
Light propagation in metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) optical modulator based on free-carrier absorption is analyzed theoretically and compared with experimental results. The coincidence is sufficient enough to confirm validity of the simulation. However, practical use of the modulator is limited since extinction ratio is still small due to weak interaction between light and inversion carrier at around 1.55 mu m light.
