Abstract
We demonstrate an integrated polarization beam splitter (PBS) of a simple and compact device geometry with high polarization extinction ratios (PERs). A silicon PBS based on a three-waveguide directional coupler is numerically simulated for optimum device parameters, and fabricated experimentally. The measured PER values of the fabricated PBSs are 40.74dB and 39.01dB for transverse electric and transverse magnetic modes, respectively, and their corresponding insertion losses are 0.35dB on average for a coupler length of about 29.4μm.
