A Compact Low-Loss Broadband Polarization Independent Silicon 50/50 Splitter
We present a low-loss, compact, polarization insensitive 3-dB optical power-splitter for submicron silicon waveguides. The splitter is optimized over a broad wavelength span ranging from 1300 to 1700 nm through finite difference time domain simulations ...

Polarization-Independent Two-Layer Grating With Five-Port Splitting Output Under Normal Incidence
In this paper, we report a two-layer five-port diffraction grating by a polarization-independent design under normal incidence. To be different from conventional five-port gratings, initially, we design a novel two-layer grating with operation in ...

Photonic crystal polarizers and polarizing beam splitters [PDF]
We have experimentally demonstrated polarizers and polarizing beam splitters based on microwave-scale two-dimensional photonic crystals. Using polarized microwaves within certain frequency bands, we have observed a squared-sinusoid (Malus) transmission law when using the photonic crystal as a polarizer.

Characterization of the Mueller Matrix: Purity Space and Reflectance Imaging
Depolarization has been found to be a useful contrast mechanism in biological and medical imaging. The Mueller matrix can be used to describe polarization effects of a depolarizing material. An historical review of relevant polarization algebra, measures

Spin-Polarizing Interferometric Beam Splitter for Free Electrons [PDF]
A spin-polarizing electron beam splitter is described which relies on an arrangement of linearly polarized laser waves of nonrelativistic intensity. An incident electron beam is first coherently scattered off a bichromatic laser field, splitting the beam into two portions, with electron spin and momentum being entangled.

Biaxial thin-film coated-plate polarizing beam splitters [PDF]
We present a design for a biaxial thin-film coated-plate polarizing beam splitter that transmits the p-polarized component of a beam of light without change of direction and reflects the s-polarized component. The beam splitter has a periodic structure and is planned for fabrication by serial bideposition in mutually orthogonal planes.
