Abstract
Here I investigate both numerically and experimentally, the polarization conversion capabilities of a rectangular array of holes with two unequal orthogonal periodicities. We show that it is possible to tune the periodicities in such a way that the transmitted light is circularly polarized for a nominated wavelength, Lambda-CPL, when the structure is illuminated with appropriately oriented linearly polarized light at normal incidence. A device was fabricated and experiments confirmed that a degree of circular polarization of 0.89 could be achieved at the resonant wavelength.
