change in phase in a optical modulator using dc voltage should be first simulated in CHARGE, and then import the carrier density as np density attribute. Please refer to this example: https://optics.ansys.com/hc/en-us/articles/360042456054-Electro-absorption-modulator

or

The data should be effective index vs voltage for INTERCONNECT use.
