Compact polarization splitter based on a silicon angled multimode interferometer structure

The difference between transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM) mode-effective indices in a wave-guided angled multimode interferometer structure is found to produce practical polarization splitting (PS) in the silicon-on-insulator platform at 1550   nm. Simulations show that this ...
