Abstract
In this work, polarization modulator utilizing MXene material, namely Nb2C is demonstrated. S band signal is injected into Nb2C thin film and is modulated by 1400 nm laser diode. A total of 39.81 degrees of polarization rotation is attained when the pump power is increased to 223 mW. The rotation of light is due to thermo-optic effect. The efficiency of polarization modulator is calculated at 0.1974 degrees/mW.
