Polarization Extinction Ratio

We propose a new compact polarization beam splitter based on the self-collimation effect of two-dimensional photonic crystals and photonic bandgap characteristics. The device is composed of a rectangular air holes-based polarization beam splitting structure and circular air holes-based self-collimating structure. By inserting the polarization beam splitting structure into the self-collimating structure, the TE and TM polarized lights are orthogonally separated at their junction. When the number of rows in the hypotenuse of the inserted rectangular holes is 5, the transmittance of TE polarized light at 1550 nm is 95.4% and the corresponding polarization extinction ratio is 23 dB; on the other hand, the transmittance of TM polarized light is 88.5% and the corresponding polarization extinction ratio is 37 dB. For TE and TM polarized lights covering a 100 nm bandwidth, the TE and TM polarization extinction ratios are higher than 18 dB and 30 dB, respectively. Compared with the previous polarization beam splitters, our structure is simple, the size is small, and the extinction ratio is high, which meets the needs of modern optical communications, optical interconnection, and optical integrated systems.

Detection Window

A new automatic optical polarization demultiplexing method for NRZ-OOK polarization division multiplexed (PDM) system is proposed. The detected power differences of both the direct current (DC) and the radio frequency (RF) are used as control signals which are sensitive to the angles between the polarization controller (PC) and the polarization beam splitter (PBS). The characteristics of those control signals are thoroughly analyzed, and the best RF detection window is calculated out through system simulation.
