We design and demonstrate a compact, low-power, low-dispersion and broadbandoptical modulator based on electro-optic (EO) polymer refilled silicon slotphotonic crystal waveguide (PCW). The EO polymer is engineered for large EOactivity and near-infrared transparency. The half-wave switching-voltage ismeasured to be V{\pi}=0.97V over optical spectrum range of 8nm, correspondingto a record-high effective in-device r33 of 1190pm/V and V{\pi} L of 0.291Vmmin a push-pull configuration. Excluding the slow-light effect, we estimate theEO polymer is poled with an ultra-high efficiency of 89pm/V in the slot. Inaddition, to achieve high-speed modulation, silicon PCW is selectively doped toreduce RC time delay. The 3-dB RF bandwidth of the modulator is measured to be11GHz, and a modulation response up to 40GHz is observed.
