Triple bend structure splits light into two highly pure polarization components

Monday, July 16, 2018 - 08:01 in Physics & Chemistry

A plan to incorporate a third bent waveguide into a silicon-based light splitter led A*STAR researchers to develop a device capable of a 30-fold improvement in splitting efficiency. The novel on-chip light splitter marks a major breakthrough in improving high-performance data transmission systems, as well as applications in quantum computing.
