Polarization conversion by Bragg deflection in isotropic planar integrated optics waveguides. I - Theoretical study. II - Experimental study

The coupled mode theory is applied to noncollinear waves in planar dielectric waveguides. A theoretical study for deflection by a Bragg grating in the range of large incidence angles (10 to 75 deg) is given. Attention is particularly given to incident or deflected waves polarization. In addition, a...

Description
Summary:The coupled mode theory is applied to noncollinear waves in planar dielectric waveguides. A theoretical study for deflection by a Bragg grating in the range of large incidence angles (10 to 75 deg) is given. Attention is particularly given to incident or deflected waves polarization. In addition, a further study of Bragg deflection with mean incidence angles varying from 45 to 75 deg is reported, and some properties of modulation or polarization conversion are evidenced.
