Broadband integrated optic polarization splitters by incorporating polarization mode extracting waveguide

Abstract A compact integrated optic polarization splitter is highly anticipated for polarization multiplexed optical communications, dual polarization optical sensors, single photon quantum signal processing, etc. In this work, we propose and demonstrate a polarization mode extracting device using a...
