利用低损耗聚合物光波导制作了平面光路(PLC)型石墨烯偏振器。在1.31微米波长下研究了石墨烯的光学特性。通过与紫外光固化的全氟丙烯酸酯聚合物树脂的界面工程，石墨烯的电学性质被调整为支持横向磁(TM)或横向电(TE)表面波。因此，根据上包层的存在或不存在，所制造的PLC型石墨烯偏振器交替用作TM通道或TE通道偏振器。所提出的平面型石墨烯偏振器可进一步用于片上光子集成电路和器件。(C)2012年美国光学学会
Planar-lightwave-circuit (PLC)-type graphene polarizers are fabricated by using a low loss optical polymer waveguide. The optical characteristics are investigated at a wavelength of 1.31 mu m. By interface engineering with a UV-curable perfluorinated acrylate polymer resin, the graphene's electrical properties are tuned to support a transverse-magnetic (TM) or transverse-electric (TE) surface wave. Thus, the fabricated PLC-type graphene polarizer serves alternatively as a TM-pass or TE-pass polarizer depending on the absence or presence of the upper-cladding layer. The proposed planar-type graphene polarizer can be exploited further for on-chip photonic integrated circuit and devices. (C) 2012 Optical Society of America
