- Abstract
- We present the optimization of a birefringence-enhanced-waveguide (BWG)-based polarization beam splitter (PBS) in a Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) configuration and analyze the structure-dependent or polarization- dependent phase difference, using a delay-line MZI (DL-MZI). We fabricate the DL-MZI using silica-based planar lightwave circuit technology and, using the DL-MZI, demonstrate the ability to optimize a PBS by measuring the birefringence of the BWG and structure-dependent phase offset. © 2012 ETRI.
