Cosmic Radiation Effect on Silicon Photonic Mach-Zehnder ModulatorWe evaluated the radiation effects of cosmic rays on silicon Mach-Zehnder Modulator loaded on International Space Station. Permanent changes of refractive index (10-3) and carrier lifetime reduction have been observed after 6 months’ radiation.
