“…We previously demonstrated a silicon-based GMR polarizer fabricated by e-beam lithography. 13 Our GMR polarizer showed an experimental extinction ratio of ϳ97 at a central wavelength of 1510 nm over a ϳ40 nm wavelength range. In this letter, we report an improved periodic subwavelength GMR polarizer and discuss how it is designed, fabricated, and characterized.…”

Broadband polarization rotator based on multi-order plasmon resonances and high impedance surfacesWe present the design, fabrication, and characterization of a guided-mode resonance polarizer operating in the telecommunication band. This polarizer consists of a single one-dimensional silicon grating layer and a glass substrate. The device is designed using inverse mathematical methods and fabricated by thin-film deposition, holographic-interference patterning, and etching. The fabricated polarizer has high transmittance for transverse-magnetic polarization and low transmittance for transverse-electric polarization over a ϳ200 nm wavelength range. Its experimental extinction ratio is ϳ670: 1 at a central wavelength c = 1563 nm. Experimental and theoretical results are in good agreement.

In this paper, I briefly summarize the physical basis of guided-(leaky-) mode resonance effect and present its promising applicability in photonic devices and systems. A summary of potential applications is presented followed by three representative examples. These elements are able to exhibit novel spectral responses in amplitude and phase with potential applications in many areas of optics and photonics.

“…Another feature is polarization dependence in contrast to a MDM. GMRFs have attracted much attention and have been investigated for applications such as polarizers [7], wave plates [8], depolarizers [9,10], color filters [11][12][13][14], and laser mirrors [15][16][17][18][19][20]. A GMRF needs a millimeter-size coupling aperture as well as a millimeter-size incident beam diameter to give high reflectance and a narrowband spectrum.…”

Design of guided-mode resonance mirrors for short laser cavities

A guided-mode resonance mirror (GMRM) consists of a waveguide grating integrated on an optical buffer layer on a high-reflection substrate. An incident free-space wave at the resonance wavelength is once coupled by the grating to a guided mode and coupled again by the same grating back to free space. The reflection characteristics of a GMRM are numerically calculated and theoretically analyzed. It is predicted that notch filtering or flat reflection spectra are obtained depending on the optical buffer layer thickness. Design of short cavities using a GMRM is discussed for potential application in surface-mount packaging of diode lasers onto a photonic circuit board.
