摘要
Strong resonant polarization conversion is observed in the reflectivity properties of one-dimensional (1-D) lattices of air trenches deeply etched in AlGaAs surface waveguides. The symmetry properties and the magnitudes of the observed effects are found to be in good agreement with the results of scattering matrix calculations.
