High Performance Polarization Beam Splitter Based on Cascaded Directional Couplers Assisted by Effectively Anisotropic Structures

A high performance polarization beam splitter (PBS) based on cascaded directional couplers (DCs) assisted by effectively anisotropic structures is proposed. The sub-wavelength grating (SWG) structures between the two coupled waveguides act as anisotropic metamaterial cladding to block/enhance light...
