The effective mode index (EMI) of a graphene-coated side-polished fiber (GSPF) is calculated numerically. Whereby, the influences of graphene atom layer number, residual radius of SPF, light frequency, scattering rate of graphene, and temperature on the EMI are investigated comprehensively. Two types of mechanisms for the electro-optical absorption modulation are found for such GSPF-based modulator. One mechanism is Pauli blocking effect (PBE) and the other is plasmonic attenuation effect (PAE). With the optimal design parameters, a PBE-based modulator is theoretically predicted to have a 0.0072 dB/mu m modulation depth, 2.92 V driving voltage swing, 6.35 nJ/bit power consumption, and 56.2 THz optical modulation bandwidth. It is also predicted that a PAE-based modulator could have a 0.0056 dB/mu m modulation depth, 0.6 V driving voltage swing, 0.27 nJ/bit power consumption, and 2.5 THz optical modulation bandwidth. By further optimization, the modulator performance such as the relatively high power consumption and the narrow operation bandwidth can be improved. Owing to their seamless connection to optical fiber networks, the GSPF-based modulators have great potential to be used in fast and high-capacity optical communication systems.
