A new TE-TM mode splitter with an asymmetric Y-junction structure operated by directly focusing randomly polarised light on to a titanium indiffused waveguide which is then directed to an ordinary-polarised nickel indiffusion waveguide and an extraordinary-polarised proton exchange waveguide in lithium niobate is demonstrated. The measured extinction ratio is greater than 20 dB for both TE and TM modes.
