Abstract
We have fabricated TE- and TM-pass waveguide polarizers with polarization isolations of 42 and 35 dB, respectively. The devices were fabricated by the growth of hydrogenated amorphous silicon claddings on K(+)-Na(+) ionexchanged channel waveguides in glass. Cladding thicknesses were accurately tuned to permit optimum coupling of either a TE or a TM mode to the cladding. We have also demonstrated that a waveguide polarizer attenuation as high as 760 dB/cm can be measured by using a photothermal deflection technique.
