Abstract polarization beam splitter (PBS).

Based on PolarizationBeamSplitterModel. Three-port, two-mode device with no mode conversion.

Args

  • t_0: Mode-0 transmission amplitude to the preferred output.
  • x_0: Mode-0 crosstalk amplitude to the other output.
  • t_1: Mode-1 transmission amplitude to the preferred output.
  • x_1: Mode-1 crosstalk amplitude to the other output.
  • r_00: Reflection at P0, mode 0.
  • r_10: Reflection at P1, mode 0.
  • r_20: Reflection at P2, mode 0.
  • r_01: Reflection at P0, mode 1.
  • r_11: Reflection at P1, mode 1.
  • r_21: Reflection at P2, mode 1.
  • mode_routing: Maps each mode index to its preferred output port index.
