Abstract

The invention discloses an inclined grating type polarization beam splitter applying a slit waveguide structure. The inclined grating type polarization beam splitter comprises a silicon-based substrate, a silicon dioxide buffer layer deposited on the silicon-based substrate, a TE straight-through section core layer positioned on the silicon dioxide buffer layer, a TM coupling section core layer positioned on the silicon dioxide buffer layer, and a silicon dioxide cladding arranged on the silicon dioxide buffer layer and coating the TE straight-through section core layer and the TM coupling section core layer. The whole structure is small and compact in size, high in coupling efficiency, high in extinction ratio, low in insertion loss and large in bandwidth. The invention further disclosesa manufacturing method of the inclined grating type polarization beam splitter.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of integrated silicon photonic chips, in particular to a polarization beam splitter. Background technique [0002] Polarizing beam splitter (PBS) is an important polarization processing device, which can separate and combine two modes, transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM). Silicon-on-insulator (SOI) offers multiple benefits as a photonics platform, including compatibility with complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) fabrication and high index contrast, enabling dense integration. [0003] Polarizing beam splitters (PBS) with different structures have been realized, including directional coupler (DC), bent directional coupler (Bent DC), grating (Grating), multimode interferometer (MMI) and Mach-Zehnder interferometer ( MZI). PBS based on vertically coupled three-dimensional Mach-Zehnder interferometer has been reported, but it uses an additional metal heater and the fabrication process is comp...
