    On chip antennas with integrated electro-optic modulators (EOMs) are attractive for millimeter wave applications. Such EOMs are placed at the antenna feed and enable the mixing of the incoming millimeter wave (mm-wave) signal with an optical carrier. As such, the mm-wave capture is turned into an optical signal that can be easily processed for imaging using standard infrared cameras. Our proposed on-chip antenna with the EOM modulator operated at 94 GHz or 77 GHz, with the antenna tuned at that frequency. For high modulation efficiency, it is critical that the modulator region is as small as possible with the optical waveguide leading to the EOM, also being well-matched. Notably, the enhanced field at the antenna feed leads to higher modulation efficiency and sensitivity. Therefore, an optimum antenna design must hasve as large as possible field strength at the feed.
