With the development of photonic integrated circuits and optical information processing on thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN), the realization of the TFLN-based polarization device is becoming more and more crucial. Here, we demonstrate a polarization modulator on the TFLN platform without polarization diversity. Without polarization manipulation elements, the device only composes a phase modulator and a two-dimensional grating coupler. The structure features small footprint and high fabrication tolerance. The device holds promise for polarization encoding telecommunication.
