High-performance and power-efficient 2${\times}$2 optical switch on Silicon-on-Insulator (1506.00803v1)
Published 2 Jun 2015 in physics.optics
Abstract: A compact (15{\mu}m${\times}${\mu}m) and highly-optimized 2${\times}$2 optical switch is demonstrated on a CMOS-compatible photonic crystal technology. On-chip insertion loss are below 1dB, static and dynamic contrast are 40dB and >20dB respectively. Owing to efficient thermo-optic design, the power consumption is below 3 mW while the switching time is 1 {\mu}s.
