Abstract
Structures for an optical power modulator and methods of fabricating a structure for an optical power modulator. A first waveguide core includes first and second sections. A second waveguide core includes a first section laterally adjacent to the first section of the first waveguide core and a second section laterally adjacent to the second section of the first waveguide core. An interconnect structure is formed over the first waveguide core and the second waveguide core. The interconnect structure includes first and second transmission lines. The first transmission line is physically connected within the interconnect structure to the first section of the first waveguide core. The second transmission line includes a first section physically connected within the interconnect structure to the second section of the first waveguide core and a second section adjacent to the first transmission line.
