This article was originally published in Vol. 52, No. 6 of Optical Engineering on 19 June 2013 with an incorrect citation identifier (CID) of 064603. The paper was removed and republished online with a correct CID of 064003 on 21 June 2013. The typical structure of the six-digit CID for OE uses the first two digits to indicate the volume number, and the middle two digits to indicate the section category. This paper was originally published under the heading “Integrated Optics” (section code 46), but has been republished under the category “Optical Components, Detectors, and Displays,” which uses section code 40.
