  • Abstract
    We design active integrated polarization controller using half-ridge-waveguide polarization converter and InGaAlAs/InAlAs multiple-quantum-well-based phase shifters. From the numerical simulation and preliminary measurement, we demonstrate the feasibility of polarization switching to arbitrary state with less than 16.2-mW DC power consumption using a 5.6-mm-long device.
