چکیده
A novel integrated TM-pass waveguide polarizer with a subwavelength-wide slot is introduced and theoretically analyzed. With a proper design of the slot, the waveguide can be used as a single polarization waveguide to guide only TM polarization modes of the light signal. With 26 microm length of this TM-pass polarizer, our computer simulations predict the insertion loss of 0.54 dB for the TM polarization mode with the extinction ratio of 20.3 dB at the wavelength of 1.55 microm.

Compact hybrid TM-pass polarizer for silicon-on-insulator platform.
Hybrid waveguides consisting of a metal plane separated from a high-index medium by a low-index spacer have recently attracted a lot of interest. TM and TE modes are guided in two different layers in these structures and their properties can be controlled in different manners by changing the waveguide dimensions and material properties. We examine the effects of different parameters on the char...
متن کاملCompact Color Filter and Polarizer of Bilayer Metallic Nanowire Grating Based on Surface Plasmon Resonances
Surface plasmon resonances on bilayer aluminum nanowire gratings are studied in both theory and experiment. It is found that there are two kinds of surface plasmon on the bilayer metallic gating: longitudinal aluminum/dielectric/aluminum slit and lateral aluminum/dielectric interface waveguide mode. The surface plasmon waveguide mode resonance in the slits makes the grating act as a transverse ...
متن کاملAnalysis 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. ...
متن کاملFabrication of integrated Ti:LiNbO3 waveguide polarizer
The design and fabrication of an integrated waveguide polarizer in z-cut LiNbO3 crystals are reported. Singlepolarization guiding is achieved by careful selection of Ti diffusion parameters exploiting the transverse electric/ transverse magnetic TE/TM refractive index anisotropy. Fabricated Ti:LiNbO3 waveguide polarizers of 1.5 cm length exhibit less than 0.2-dB/cm propagation loss at TM and 33...
