چکیده

A mode-evolution-based polarization splitter suitable for high-index-contrast systems and directly integratable with a recently reported on-polarization rotator is described and its performance verified through both finite-difference time-domain and eigenmode expansion simulations. For a device length of 200 microm, greater than 22 dB of extinction is obtained across a 1.45-1.75-microm bandwidth.

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...

Numerical analysis of polarization splitter based on vertically coupled microring resonator.

The performance of a polarization splitter based on vertically coupled microring resonator is rigorously investigated by a combination of a 3D full vectorial film mode matching method with a 3D full vectorial coupled mode theory. The spectral responses of the structure for TE and TM mode are calculated, together with eigenmodes of uncoupled waveguides and scattering matrix of coupling region. T...

Mode-evolution-based polarization rotator-splitter design via simple fabrication process.

A mode-evolution-based polarization rotator-splitter built on InP substrate is proposed by combining a mode converter and an adiabatic asymmetric Y-coupler. The mode converter, consisting of a bi-level taper and a width taper, effectively converts the fundamental TM mode into the second order TE mode without changing the polarization of the fundamental TE mode. The following adiabatic asymmetri...

Ultracompact and fabrication-tolerant integrated polarization splitter.

Design and fabrication of a 2×2 two-mode interference (TMI) coupler based on-chip polarization splitter is presented. By changing the angle between the access waveguides, one can tune the effective TMI length for the mode with less optical confinement (transverse magnetic, TM) to coincide with the target TMI length for a desired transmission of the mode with higher optical confinement (transver...

Ultracompact and high efficient silicon-based polarization splitter-rotator using a partially-etched subwavelength grating coupler

On-chip polarization manipulation is pivotal for silicon-on-insulator material platform to realize polarization-transparent circuits and polarization-division-multiplexing transmissions, where polarization splitters and rotators are fundamental components. In this work, we propose an ultracompact and high efficient silicon-based polarization splitter-rotator (PSR) using a partially-etched subwa...
