An SOI based polarization insensitive filter for all-optical clock recovery

We propose and fabricate an SOI based polarization diversity scheme consisting of two 2D grating couplers and a micro ring resonator. Based on this scheme, all-optical polarization insensitive clock recovery has been demonstrated successfully.
