Experimental realization of coherent perfect polarization rotation

Opt Lett. 2016 May 15;41(10):2201-4. doi: 10.1364/OL.41.002201.

Abstract

Coherent perfect processes enable high optical efficiencies in optical conversion phenomena such as coherent perfect absorption or coherent perfect polarization rotation. A linear optical coherent perfect process based on Faraday rotation has been evaluated experimentally, achieving contrast limited by other optical components of the system and demonstrating like-parity resonance doublets above threshold.
