摘要：
We propose the silicon photonic optical phased array (OPA) with large scanning angle by using polarization multiplexing. A Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) switch together with a polarization splitter/rotator is utilized to select the polarization mode input to the OPA. By optimizing the OPA grating emitter, the steering angle can be doubled with the input of the TE/TM polarization modes. An 1 x 16 silicon-based optical phased array with polarization multiplexing is designed as an example. The simulation results show that 77.4 degrees lateral beam steering with no sidelobes via phase tuning and 28.2 degrees longitudinal beam steering via wavelength tuning can be realized.
