Abstract
We demonstrate a polarization rotator fabricated using a 4 etch-step CMOS-compatible process including layer depositions on a silicon-on-insulator wafer by means of 193nm deep UV lithography. The measured polarization rotation efficiency is at least -0.5dB over a wavelength range of 80nm around 1550nm.
