Wideband antireflective polarizers based on integrated diffractive multilayer microstructures.

Microstructures of composite materials can exhibit properties significantly different from their individual constitution. By utilizing these unique characteristics, we design diffractive optical elements to demonstrate transmission-only polarizers for telecommunications. The transmittance and the extinction ratio of the proposed structure are >95% and >40 dB at 1470-1910 nm wavelengths, respectively. The average reflectance for random polarization is less than 1% at 1350-1580 nm. The methods are applicable to diffractive optics, e.g., in the ultraviolet and visible spectrum.

Achromatic wave plates for optical pickup units fabricated by use of imprint lithography.

We report achromatic form-birefringence wave plates for optical pickup units. Material dispersion and structure dispersion are balanced in a rigorous multilayer design. A trilayer grating using SiN(x)/SiO(y)N(z)/SiO2 provides easily accessible process control points and relaxed fabrication tolerance. We demonstrate precise patterning by using nanoimprint lithography on UV-curable polymers, alleviating a major fabrication challenge. The achromatic wave plates exhibit 90+/-3 degrees retardance and >95% transmittance as measured by a Mueller matrix method at wavelengths of 640-800 nm.
