Polarization Beam Splitter Based on Self-Collimation of a Hybrid Photonic Crystal
A photonic crystal polarization beam splitter based on photonic band gap and self-collimation effects is designed for optical communication wavelengths. The photonic crystal structure consists of a polarization-insensitive self-collimation region and a splitting region. TMand TE-polarized waves propagate without diffraction in the self-collimation region, whereas they split by 90 degrees in the...
متن کاملCompact Mach-Zehnder interferometer based on self-collimation of light in a silicon photonic crystal.
We demonstrate a compact silicon photonic crystal Mach-Zehnder interferometer operating in the self-collimation regime. By tailoring the photonic band structure such as to produce self-collimated beams, it is possible to design beam splitters and mirrors and combine these to a 20 x 20 microm(2) format. With transmission spectroscopy we find a pronounced unidirectional optical output, the output...
متن کاملOptimization of a Birefringence - Enhanced - Waveguide - Based Polarization Beam Splitter
waveguide (BWG)-based polarization beam splitter (PBS) in a Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) configuration and analyze the structure-dependent or polarization-dependent phase difference, using a delay-line MZI (DL-MZI). We fabricate the DL-MZI using silica-based planar lightwave circuit technology and, using the DL-MZI, demonstrate the ability to optimize a PBS by measuring the birefringence o...

Due to the increasing growth of processing cores in complex computational systems, all the connection converted bottleneck for all systems. With the protection of progressing and constructing complex photonic connection on chip, optical data transmission is the best choice for replacing with electrical interconnection for the reason of gathering connection with a high bandwidth and insertion lo...
متن کاملExperimental demonstration of self-collimation beaming and splitting in photonic crystals
I studied experimentally the beam self-collimation and splitting in two-dimensional microwave photonic crystals. Using a microwave photonic crystal fabricated from alumina rods, I present an experimental proof of principle for an earlier theoretical proposal [A. Matthews et al., Opt. Commun. 279, 313 (2007)] of a photonic crystal beam splitter based on the self-collimation effect.
