Optical beam splitters are essential for classical and quantum photonic on-chip systems. In integrated optical technology, a beam splitter can be implemented as a beam coupler with two input and two output ports. The output ...

Polymer optical sensors have attracted significant scientific interest due to the advantages of flexibility and low-cost mass-production possibilities. A main challenge in integration of all-polymer systems is interfacing ...

Topology optimization techniques have been applied in integrated optics and nanophotonics for the inverse design of devices with shapes that cannot be conceived by human intuition. At optical frequencies, these techniques ...
