Polarisation effects in gallium arsenide optical waveguides

This thesis describes an investigation of polarisation conversion effects in gallium arsenide optical waveguides. The research was carried out with the aims of predicting, preventing and harnessing such effects. Experimental results are presented to demonstrate changes in the polarisation state of l...
