Abstract(in English) A Nonreciprocal polarization converter compatible with InP-based photonic integrated circuits is proposed. The device consists of an asymmetric InGaAsP/InP rib waveguide combined with a ferrimagnetic Ce:YIG layer. The combination of the optical waveguide and the magnetized ferrimagnetic layer produces a nonreciprocal magneto-optic effect. We first designed the structure of the device with the aid of electromagnetic simulation using the finite-difference method including magneto-optic terms. On the basis of the results, we fabricated a prototype device and evaluated its operation. The device showed a nonreciprocal polarization conversion of 38% at wavelength from 1.52 to 1.58 μm.
