Compact and broadband polarization beam splitter based on a silicon nitride augmented low-index guiding structure.
We propose a compact polarization beam splitter (PBS) based on a silicon nitride enhanced silicon-on-insulator platform using an augmented low-index guiding (ALIG) waveguide structure. In the ALIG structure, the TM mode is mostly confined in the low-index silicon nitride, while the TE mode is confined in the high-index silicon. Since the two modes are confined in two separate layers, their prop...
متن کاملPolarization rotator based on augmented low-index-guiding waveguide on silicon nitride/silicon-on-insulator platform.
Using a newly proposed augmented low-index-guiding scheme with silicon nitride/silicon dual-core waveguide, we have designed, fabricated, and characterized a transverse electric (TE) to transverse magnetic (TM) and TM-to-TE compact polarization rotator. The polarization rotation is realized in an asymmetric directional coupler. The measured peak conversion efficiencies for the TE-to-TM and TM-t...
متن کاملSuspended polarization beam splitter on silicon-on-insulator.
Polarization handling in suspended silicon photonics has the potential to enable new applications in fields such as optomechanics, photonic microelectromechanical systems, and mid-infrared photonics. In this work, we experimentally demonstrate a suspended polarization beam splitter on a silicon-on-insulator waveguide platform, based on an asymmetric directional coupler. Our device presents pola...
متن کاملPhotonic Crystal Polarization Beam Splitter in Silicon-On-Insulator Platform
In this work we report an ultracompact (8.7 μm x 10.6 μm) integrated planar photonic crystal polarization beam splitter in silicon-on-insulator platform with 18.6 dB and 11.1 dB extinction ratio at a wavelength of 1520 nm at the outputs for transverse-magnetic and transverse-electric polarization, respectively. The physical separation of both polarization states is achieved by negative and posi...
متن کاملNovel ultra-short and ultra-broadband polarization beam splitter based on a bent directional coupler.
A novel ultra-short polarization beam splitter (PBS) based on a bent directional coupler is proposed by utilizing the evanescent coupling between two bent optical waveguides with different core widths. For the bent directional coupler, there is a significant phase-mismatch for TE polarization while the phase-matching condition is satisfied for TM polarization. Therefore, the TM polarized light ...
