Optical coupling propertis between side-polished fiber and metal-clad planar waveguide

측면 연마된 광섬유와 금속 클래드 평면도파로사이의 광결합특성

We report the experimental results for the coupling properties of the an side-polished single-mode fiber covered with metal-clad planar waveguide. The experimental results show that the large birefringence of a metal-clad planar waveguide facilitates the effective separation of TE and TM polarization in the spectral domain. Additionally the resonant wavelengths of the device are tuned based in the thermo-optic effect of polymer planar waveguide.
