Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical waveguide polarizers, in particular to a lithium niobate optical waveguide polarizer based on antiproton exchange technology and a manufacturing method. Background technique
[0002] Optical waveguide polarizers have become the first choice for polarizer design because of their simple structure and ease of integration. An important application of this type of polarizer is fiber optic gyro, by integrating functional devices such as polarizers, modulators, and beam splitters into a LiNbO 3 On the substrate, it constitutes the core part of the fiber optic gyroscope. At present, the waveguide polarizers that have been reported include: metal-clad waveguide polarizers, waveguide polarizers using birefringent materials as core layers or cladding layers, and waveguide polarizers constructed using asymmetric multilayer films. Among them, the transmission loss of the metal clad waveguide polarizer is lar...
