We develop a design method for creating a large-scale optical switch consisting of two sub-switch parts, i.e., delivery-and-coupling switches and wavelength-routing switches based on cyclic arrayed-waveguide gratings, where the available optical-power ...

Non-volatile Optical Switch Based on a GST-Loaded Directional Coupler [PDF]
We present a non-volatile optical switch based on a directional coupler comprising a silicon-Ge2Sb2Te5 (GST) hybrid waveguide. The non-volatility of GST makes it attractive for reducing static power consumption in optical switching.

Simulation of 1 x 2 OTDM router employing symmetric Mach-Zehnder switches [PDF]
In high-speed all-optical time division multiplexed (OTDM) routers it is desirable to carry out data routing, switching, clock recovery and synchronisation in the optical domain in order to avoid the bottleneck due to optoelectronics conversion.

All-Optical Packet Switching and Label Rewriting for Data Packets Beyond 160 Gb/s
In this paper, two different paradigms to realize a scalable all-optical packet switch with label swapping will be reviewed. The two paradigms are based on wavelength routing switch and space routing switch.

All-optical switching in epsilon-near-zero asymmetric directional coupler
We propose an all-optical switch based on an asymmetric directional coupler structure with epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) layer. The nonlinear optical properties the of ENZ layer are analyzed by hot-electron dynamics process, and the all-optical operating ...

Ultrafast and High Extinction Ratio 1×4 Electro-Optical Switch Based on Cascaded Dual-Output MZI
We propose and fabricate an ultrafast and high extinction ratio 1 × 4 optical switch based on a cascade, dual-output Mach–Zehnder interferometer (MZI) on the lithium niobate platform. The optical switch consists of cascaded, identical, dual-

Simulation of an all-optical 1 x 2 SMZ switch with a high contrast ratio [PDF]
— An all-optical 1×2 high contrast ratio (CR) switch based on the symmetric Mach-Zehnder (SMZ) interferometers is presented. Simulation results show a remarkable improvement of the inter-output CR (~25 dB) between the two outputs compared with an ...

Hybrid InGaAsP-InP Mach-Zehnder racetrack resonator for thermooptic switching and coupling control [PDF]
An InGaAsP-InP optical switch geometry based on electrical control of waveguide-resonator coupling is demonstrated. Thermooptic tuning of a Mach-Zehnder interferometer integrated with a racetrack resonator is shown to result in switching with ON-OFF ...

Ultracompact and low-power optical switch based on silicon photonic crystals [PDF]
Switching light is one of the most fundamental functions of an optical circuit. As such, optical switches are a major research topic in photonics, and many types of switches have been realized.
