Abstract
The velocity-mismatching effect of the traveling wave electroabsorption mod ulator (TWEAM) is investigated. A model is proposed to design the length of the modulator. Optical transmission through the device is simulated and th e degradation of extinction ratio with velocity mismatch is analyzed.
