Abstract

We demonstrate a lightwave-micromachine-based polarization-controller and experimentally verify its operation. The results suggest that micromachines may be useful in manipulating polarization states in lightwave systems and may thus lead to smaller and cheaper polarization-mode dispersion-compensators.
