Ultra-Broadband Polarization Beam Splitter Based on Cascaded Mach-Zehnder Interferometers Assisted by Effectively Anisotropic Structures

An ultra-broadband polarization beam splitter (PBS) consisting of cascaded Mach-Zehnder interferometers (MZIs) is proposed on 220 nm-thick silicon-on-insulator (SOI) platform. The configuration of the cascaded MZIs has a point symmetry in order to broaden the bandwidth of the cross-coupling for the...
