Study of polarization diversity circuit in silicon photonics

A light source can be broken down into its electric field vectors; the Transverse Electric (TE) and the Transverse Magnetic (TM). Structural birefringence causes the high frequency TE and TM waves to travel at different speeds. This causes the waves to arrive at their destinations with a phase diffe...
