Silicon nitride polarization beam splitter based on polarization-independent MMIs and apodized Bragg gratings

Jiahao Zhan et al.

Summary: The paper presents a novel polarization beam splitter (PBS) made on a Si3N4 platform, achieving high polarization extinction ratio (PER) using polarization-independent multi-mode interferometers and apodized Bragg gratings. Experimental results show a PER of > 30 dB over a bandwidth of 22 nm with an insertion loss of around 1.1 dB, in a total device length of approximately 820 μm.

Broadband and compact polarization beam splitter in LNOI hetero-anisotropic metamaterials

Chunyu Deng et al.

Summary: This paper proposes a high-performance PBS based on hetero-anisotropic metamaterials, which can achieve polarization beam splitting within a single beat length and has a small footprint. Simulation results show that the bandwidth is 185nm for TE polarization and 85nm for TM polarization when the polarization extinction ratio is greater than 20dB. Additionally, the insertion loss for both TE and TM polarization is less than 1dB in the range of 1450 to 1650nm.

High-Q microresonators on 4H-silicon-carbide-on-insulator platform for nonlinear photonics

Chengli Wang et al.

Summary: By experimenting with photonic microresonators on a 4H-silicon-carbide-on-insulator platform, a wide range of frequency conversion phenomena, including second-, third-, and fourth-harmonic generation, as well as cascaded Raman lasing, were observed under high-Q factors. Additionally, by engineering the dispersion properties of the SiC microresonator, broadband Kerr frequency combs covering from 1300 to 1700nm were achieved. This demonstration represents a significant milestone in the development of SiC photonic integrated devices.

Thermal Behaviors and Optical Parametric Oscillation in 4H-Silicon Carbide Integrated Platforms

Xiaodong Shi et al.

Summary: Thermal properties of 4H-SiC waveguides were comprehensively studied, with measured thermo-optic coefficient and the ratio between thermal absorption and thermal diffusion. Kerr-nonlinearity-based dual-pump optical parametric oscillation (OPO) was experimentally achieved through thermal tuning of 4H-SiC-on-insulator (SiCOI) microring resonators, demonstrating the feasibility of generating broadband solitons.
