  4. 2. Multifunctional Waveguide Grating Couplers for Integrated Optics

    Author : Johan Backlund; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : This thesis describes a novel waveguide component in integrated optics called a multifunctional grating coupler. It couples light in or out of optical waveguides and provides additional optical functions such as beam splitting, arbitrary focusing, polarization sensing, and wavelength separation (wavelength division demultiplexing).
