چکیده
A novel device with a substrate-mode grating pair structure to perform the function of polarization selection is presented. Normally incident and output coupling of this compact and lightweight component provides better flexibility and easier alignment for system applications. A highly polarization-selective substrate-mode grating pair has been designed and fabricated. Polarization-selective switching experiments with this device are demonstrated.

Polarization-selective volume holograms: general design.
General design of polarization-selective volume holograms is discussed in detail. The required diffraction angles for these highly polarization-selective elements are calculated. An effective indexmodulation parameter is defined and used to calculate the required index-modulation value at any specified operating wavelength. Design examples of operating wavelengths at 780, 830, 1050, 1300, and 1...
متن کاملDesign 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 کاملSubwavelength-structured polarization-selective surfaces
Subwavelength-period gratings exhibit a number of interesting polarization-selective properties. We investigate several such phenomena: an "inverse" wire-grid polarizer, which transmits TE light while stopping TM light, a guided-mode resonance filter with an order-of-magnitude difference in the width of the reflectance peak for the two orthogonal states of polarization, a metal-coated silicon g...
متن کاملPassive Polarization Converter in SiON Technology
A passive polarization converter has been realized in silicon oxynitride (SiON) technology. The device is a grating assisted codirectional coupler consisting of segments of asymmetrically etched ridge waveguides. By using a double-masking technique, the fabrication of the device is tolerant with respect to the alignment of the required masks. Conversion efficiencies up to 0.98 (TE TM and TM TE)...
متن کاملSurface Grating Optimization for Low-Threshold Atomic Clock VCSELs
Vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) with emission in a single-mode, singlepolarization beam at a wavelength of 894.6 nm have been fabricated for use in Cs-based atomic clocks. For polarization control, monolithically integrated surface gratings are employed. Simulated and experimental results show that the longitudinal position of the surface grating has a significant influence on ...
