SiP demonstrations with polarization

The polarization of light conveys unique information that can be exploited by crucial applications. The bulky and costly discrete optical components used in conventional polarimeters limit their broad adoption. A compact, low-cost polarimeter would bring this functionality into a myriad of new scenarios and revolutionize its exploitation. Providing a high-performance, full-Stokes polarimeter on a silicon chip is one of the important researches in our lab.
