In this review we present an overview of the progress made in recent years in the field of
integrated silicon-on-insulator (SOI) waveguide photonics with a strong emphasis on third …

An improved 8-channel silicon mode demultiplexer is realized with TE-type and TM-type
grating polarizers at the output ends, and these gratings serve as fiber-chip couplers …

Slot waveguides allow for high optical confinement in a planar optical waveguide. Here we
show a method for maintaining this high degree of confinement in slot waveguides with …

A novel silicon slot waveguide TE-pass polarizer with graphene multilayer embedded in the
slot is proposed and demonstrated by utilization of the fact that the variation of the modal …

Graphene is treated as an anisotropic material because it is one atom thick and its π
electrons cause electric conduction in its plane. Based on the polarization-dependent …

An ultracompact transverse magnetic (TM)-pass polarizer based on silicon nanophotonic
waveguides is proposed, which contains two tapered waveguides sandwiching a narrow …

A low-loss, compact TM-pass polarizer is demonstrated based on hybrid plasmonic grating
on silicon-on-insulator platform. Since the large mode distribution mismatch and plasmonic …

Transverse electric (TE)-pass polarizers integrated in silicon-on-insulator photonic circuits,
based on hybrid plasmonic absorption, have been widely discussed as a key component for …

We have designed and experimentally demonstrated an integrated transverse electric (TE)-
pass polarizer on silicon-on-insulator platform. The polarizer consists of an asymmetric …

In this letter, a TM-polarization C-band pass one-dimensional photonic crystal strip
waveguide (1D-PCSW) is presented. The waveguide structure is based on a silicon-on …
