چکیده

The use of a high-finesse Fabry-Perot ring cavity with an odd number of reflections as a high-extinction-ratio resonant polarizer is shown. Experimental results from quantum-noise measurements using resonant cavities as spatial and spectral filters and precision polarizers are presented.

Analysis of Silicon Clad Optical Waveguide for High Extinction Ratio TE/TM Pass Polarizers using Resonant Coupling between Guided Modes and Lossy Modes

Attenuation characteristics of a planar silicon-clad ion exchange glass waveguide structure are investigated theoretically at the optical wavelength of 0.6328 μm. An oscillatory behaviour of the attenuation curves is noticed in the proposed four layer structure. It is observed that by varying the thickness of silicon cladding layer, the TE or TM propagating modes may be selectively attenuated. ...

Fiber-Optic Polarizer Using Resonant Tunneling through a Multilayer Overlay

We demonstrate an in-line fiber-optic polarizer using resonant tunneling through a leaky multilayer overlay for the first time. Polarization extinction ratio (PER) = 27 dB with an insertion loss (IL) = 3 dB has been demonstrated experimentally with scope of further improvement. A simple planar waveguide model is developed to analyze the device whose predictions match very well with the experime...

Wide-angle near infrared polarizer with extremely high extinction ratio.

An infrared polarizer is designed with a predicted extremely high extinction ratio exceeding 3 × 10(16) and transmittance higher than 89% for one polarization in the wavelength region from 1.6 to 2.3 µm. Moreover, the performance does not start to deteriorate until 60° tilting angle. The wide-angle high transmission is attributed to the excitation of magnetic polaritons and suitable LC circuit ...

High extinction ratio D-shaped fiber polarizers coated by a double graphene/PMMA stack.

We demonstrate theoretically and experimentally a high extinction ratio and compact size TE-pass polarizer made by a D-shaped fiber coated with a double graphene/PMMA stack. The light propagating in the core of the fiber can be efficiently coupled into the graphene sheet thanks to the giant enhancement of the modal evanescent field associated with the high refractive index graphene/PMMA claddin...

Broadband and wide angle infrared wire-grid polarizer.

An infrared polarizer consisting of metal-insulator-metal (MIM) gratings is designed with transmittance exceeding 85% and polarization extinction ratio (ER) higher than 70 dB in the wavelength range from 1.5 to 8 μm. Moreover, the polarizer retains excellent performance even when the incident angle increases to as large as 80°. The MIM gratings support magnetic polariton (MP) in the near-infrar...
