Abstract

Waveguide devices based on electro-optic (EO) polymers may play important roles in optical signal processing and optical communication. Because of their excellent velocity matching between microwave and optical signals, high speed modulators have been actively investigated [1], [2]. Recently, a polymeric wavelength-insensitive passive polarization converter was reported [3]. It demonstrated that the optic axis distribution in a poled polymer waveguide is controllable by specially designing the poling electrodes, and new types of polarization controlling devices may be designed based on this.
