Method for increasing eam bandwidth, component structure and manufacturing process thereof

A component structure for increasing the bandwidth of an electroabsorption modulator, comprising:

• a p-i-n optical waveguide, formed on the electroabsorption modulator, the p-i-n optical waveguide having a plurality of the p-i-n active waveguides of the electroabsorption modulator;
• high-impedance transmission lines, used in series to connect the p-i-n active waveguides of the electroabsorption modulator to reduce microwave reflection and increase the bandwidth of the electroabsorption modulator;
• and
• an input impedance-controlled transmission line and an output impedance-controlled transmission line, formed respectively at two ends of the electroabsorption modulator.
