    Abstract: A method includes receiving a silicon substrate; forming a first doped region and a second doped region in the silicon substrate; forming a third doped region and fourth doped region on upper portions of the first doped region and the second doped region, respectively; and patterning the silicon substrate to form an optical modulator. The optical modulator includes: a first section; a second section and a third section at least formed from the first and second doped regions, respectively; a fourth section, including a first height less than that of the first section and the second section and arranged between the first section and the second section, the fourth section being an undoped region; and a fifth section immediately adjacent to the fourth section, the fifth section including a height less than that of the first section and the second section and different from the first height.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an optical modulating structure. The optical modulating structure includes a lower member extending along an insulating layer, a first protrusion over the lower member, and a second protrusion over the lower member and separated from the first protrusion. A first mask layer is formed over the optical modulating structure, wherein the first mask layer covers the second protrusion and a first portion of the lower member between the first protrusion and the second protrusion. A first doping region is formed in an exposed portion of the lower member and at least a portion of an exposed sidewall of the first protrusion. A dielectric layer is formed between the first protrusion and the second protrusion. A method for manufacturing the optical modulating structure is also provided.
