نویسندگان
چکیده
A novel design for an integrated passive polarization splitter/converter combination is presented. The device consists of a Mach–Zehnder interferometer with polarization converters in both arms. The device is analyzed using the transfer matrix method and fabricated in InGaAsP–InP. Measurement results show a splitting ratio of approximately 10 dB and a conversion of>90%. This device can be monolithically integrated with passive and active components.

Design of Photonic Crystal Polarization Splitter on InP Substrate
In this article, we suggested a novel design of polarization splitter based on coupler waveguide on InP substrate at 1.55mm wavelength. Photonic crystal structure is consisted of two dimensional (2D) air holes embedded in InP/InGaAsP material with an effective refractive index of 3.2634 which is arranged in a hexagonal lattice. The photonic band gap (PBG) of this structure is determined using t...

متن کاملExtremely low-loss vertically-tapered spot size converter in InP-based waveguide structure
Low-loss spot size converters (SSC) are important elements for coupling photonic integrated circuits to fibres. We have developed a Cl2-based inductively-coupled-plasma process to etch non-selectively InP and photo-resist (PR). This process was then used to transfer a vertically-tapered PR pattern into an InP/InGaAsP structure. The tapered PR pattern was made using a standard optical lithograph...
متن کاملPhotonic Crystal-Based Polarization Converter for Optical Communication Applications
A photonic crystal-based TE to TM polarization converter for integrated optical communication is proposed in this paper. The photonic crystal consists of air circular-holes in slab waveguide. The radius of holes are determined to be 291nm having lattice constant of 640nm using the gap map and band diagram. The polarization converter is composed of an InGaAsP triangular-shaped waveguide on SiO2 ...
متن کاملEtched beam splitters in InP/InGaAsP.
An etched beam splitter (EBS) photonic coupler based on frustrated total internal reflection (FTIR) is designed, fabricated and characterized in the InP/InGaAsP material system. The EBS offers an ultra compact footprint (8x11 μm) and a complete range of bar/cross coupling ratio designs. A novel pre-etching process is developed to achieve sufficient depth of the etched coupling gaps. Fabricated ...
