ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to an transverse electric mode electro-optic cell for a modulator, as well as to its production process.
The cell has on a substrate (4), an active region (10), and modulation control electrodes (16) on either side of the active region (10). According to the invention, the cell has confinement regions (14) of a material having a lower refractive index and lower resistivity than the material of the active region, the confinement regions being positioned on either side and against the active region (10) and between the control electrodes (16).
