Abstract :
In this paper, we propose and demonstrate an integrated optics InGaAsP/InP Lyot depolarizer. Detailed simulation, using three-dimensional full vectorial BPM (3D-VBPM), shows that a high index contrast material allows the design of a compact polarization insensitive depolarizer. Output degree of polarization less than 0.1 is obtained for light sources with spectral widths larger than 25nm.
