| Abstract: | The use of a two-dimensional finite difference simulation technique to determine optimal design parameters for the fabrication of TE/TM-mode converters on (001) InP substrate is discussed. Based on design rules extracted from the calculations, a tunable device for an operating wavelength of 1.56 μm has been fabricated and polarization conversion of 45°, suitable for operation in a polarization diversity network has been achieved at an effective voltage of 32 V |
