Polarization Multiplexing Silicon-Photonic Optical Phased Array for 2D Wide-Angle Optical Beam Steering

We propose the silicon photonic optical phased array (OPA) with large scanning angle by using polarization multiplexing. A Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) switch together with a polarization splitter/rotator is utilized to select the polarization mode input to the OPA. By optimizing the OPA gratin...
