摘要
We propose and analyze a silicon hybrid plasmonic polarization splitter-rotator with an ultra-short footprint using an asymmetric bent directional coupler on a silicon-on-insulator platform.Benefitting from the large birefringence induced by the bent structure and plasmonic effect,the cross-polarization coupling length is only 5.21μm.The transverse magnetic to transverse electric polarization conversion efficiency is over 99.9%,with an extinction ratio of 20.6 dB(32.5 dB)for the transverse magnetic(transverse electric)mode at 1.55μm.Furthermore,the polarization conversion efficiency is higher than 90%while maintaining cross talk below-19 dB within the bandwidth of 80 nm.
