This paper reviews the invention, design and theoretical simulation of 2 x 2 and 1 x 4 optical routing switches. Insertion loss and crosstalk performance in the 1.55 to 3.0 μm wavelength range are predicted. The electrically actuated optical layer is a thin film of Ge2Sb2Te5 or GeTe or GeSe whose thickness is in the 10 to 100-nm range. This film was embedded at the centerline of an SOI, SON, or GeOI...
An integrated optical switch based on liquid crystal on silicon is reported. The switch consists of an optical waveguide, whose core is made of nematic liquid crystal E7 infiltrated in a SiO2/Si V-groove. The electrooptic effect allows us to control the waveguide propagation condition by means of ITO and Si electrodes. A voltage as low as 2 V applied to the driving electrodes turns the waveguide on...
