Optical isolators, while commonplace in bulk- and fiber-optic systems, remain a key missing component in integrated photonic systems. Isolation using magneto-optic effects has been difficult to implement due to fabrication restraints,…
Due to that the polarization states in optical fibers change randomly during transmission, polarization-independent (PID) devices are demanded to receive lights with arbitrary polarization states. Compared with their orthogonal polarization…
