Methods and applications of on-chip beam splitting: A review
At present, there are inverse design splitters based on a variety of optimization algorithms, such as direct binary search algorithm, topology optimization, gradient descent optimization
In its most common form, a cube, a beam splitter is made from two triangular glass which are glued together at their base using polyester,, or urethane-based adhesives. (Before these synthetic, natural ones were used, e.g.) The thickness of the resin layer is adjusted such that (for a certain ) half of the light incident through one "port" (i.e., face of the cube) is and th.
