Optical delay lines (ODLs) are one of the key enabling components in photonic integrated
circuits and systems. They are widely used in time-division multiplexing, optical signal …

We present cost effective 2 x 2 silicon nitride Mach-Zehnder interferometric thermo-optic
switches with 1 mm-length phase shifter. Devices were fabricated on a bulk silicon wafer …

A novel configuration for realizing a polarization-insensitive optical switch on silicon-on-
insulator of 340nm-thick top-silicon layer is demonstrated, using submicron sized …

We propose and experimentally demonstrate an automated resonance wavelength
alignment scheme for an O-band 4× 4 thermo-optic optical switch using dual-ring …

A free space cross-connection of the optical signals using an optical micro/nano-electro-
mechanical system (OMEMS/ONEMS) is designed and simulated using the commercial …

We propose and experimentally demonstrate a five-port silicon optical switch based on the
optimized Spanke-Beneš structure for 2-D-mesh network on chip. We optimize it by …

2× 2 Mach-Zehnder thermo-optic switches on silicon are found to exhibit huge difference of
extinction ratios between the bar and cross port, with the bar port lower by up to 20 dB …

The existing photonic switch matrices usually show the drawbacks of either a large footprint
or high cross talk. Here, we propose a compact InGaAsP/InP rearrangeable nonblocking 4× …

We propose and experimentally demonstrate a novel blocking state of a silicon electro-
optical switch based on free carrier absorption effect. By injecting the holes and electrons …

Optical network on chip (ONoC) is a promising on-chip communication architecture for future
many-core systems due to its high performance and energy efficient. ONoC is mostly …
