摘要
In this paper a compact and efficient polarization splitter using horizontal slotted waveguides is presented. The splitter is designed by finite-difference-time-domain simulation and realized experimentally. The splitter is built by using a direction coupler consisting of two horizontal slotted waveguides and achieves a high extinction ratio of 14.1 and 16.8 dB for cross and through ports. The optimal coupling length is found to be 15 mu m. The device exhibits a good response of extinction ratio across C + L broadband. The splitter obtained is readily used for a polarization diversity circuit, particularly for platforms with horizontal slot waveguides. (C) 2012 Optical Society of America
