Abstract

A TM-pass polarizer is proposed and analyzed. This polarizer reflects TM polarized waves with low-loss, whilethe reflected TE polarized waves are highly attenuated. Thus, it is called a reflection mode TM-pass polarizer. The proposed polarizer is realized by adding cormgations in cascade with a four layer high-index metal-clad waveguide. The reflection spectra of device are calculated in order to study the effect of the various parameters of the device. This includes variation of the length of the metalclad section, the thickness of the high index buffer layer, the grating groove depth and the total number of grooves in the cormgated section of the device. The cormgated section of the polarizer causes it to act as a wavelength filter. The device is analyzed numerically using the Method of Lines.
