Abstract

See full text

This relates generally to optical waveguide-based devices including dynamically programmable optical attenuators. In particular, this provides an optical attenuator having a Mach Zehnder configuration with reduced polarization dependence. The devices herein facilitate the implementation of continuously-variable optical attenuators, optical shutters, and optical switches in an integrated photonic circuit.
