Abstract
An accurate numerical simulation study of a polarization conversion phenomenon in deeply etched semiconductor electro-optic waveguide modulators is presented. Based on a powerful and versatile finite element package, the effect of various imperfect fabrication conditions on unwanted and unexpected polarization conversion in electro-optic semiconductor modulators is, for the first time to our knowledge reported and explained in terms of its origin.
