Abstract:
Various embodiments relate to polarization splitters. A polarization splitter may include a silicon nitride (SiN) waveguide core configured to receive an input light signal having a first polarization mode and a second polarization mode. The polarization splitter may further include a silicon (Si) slot waveguide core disposed proximate the SiN waveguide core. The Si slot waveguide core may include a tapered portion at a first end configured to couple the first polarization mode to the Si slot waveguide.

Claim (Index 17):
A polarization splitter, comprising:\n a silicon nitride (SiN) waveguide core including a coupling region and configured to receive an input light signal including a first polarization mode and a second polarization mode; and a silicon (Si) waveguide core disposed proximate the SiN waveguide core and including slot-to-channel converter, the Si waveguide core configured to couple to the first polarization mode.
