Various embodiments may relate to an electro-optic modulator. The electro-optic modulator may include a waveguide configured to carry optical light along a longitudinal length of the waveguide. The electro-optic modulator may also include a first electrically conductive sub-wavelength grating on a first side of the waveguide, the first electrically conductive sub-wavelength grating including a plurality of fingers extending substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal length of the waveguide. The electro-optic modulator may further include a second electrically conductive sub-wavelength grating on a second side of the waveguide opposite the first side, the second electrically conductive sub-wavelength grating including a plurality of fingers extending substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal length of the waveguide. The electro-optic modulator may be configured to modulate the optical light upon application of a potential difference between the first electrically conductive sub-wavelength grating and the second electrically conductive sub-wavelength grating based on Pockels effect.
