Abstract
The paper presents two methods of determining the planar waveguide birefringence and the measuring stands, which are used to determine the birefringence of planar waveguide structures. The light is introduced into the waveguide through a prism coupler. First method uses the measurement of scattered light. The second method uses an immersion coupler. The most fundamental property of an immersion coupler is the possibility to change fluently the propagation length while immersing the waveguide with an invariable efficiency of output coupling.
