摘要
An InP-InGaAsP 4 x 4 optical crossconnect occupying only 2 x 2 mm(2) was demonstrated by combining 16 1 x 2 optically amplified suppressed interference switches (OASIS) in a square array architecture. On/off ratios of 33 +/- 4 dB were measured for a majority of these elements and fiber-to-fiber insertion loss of 3 dB was obtained using additional on-chip amplification stages.
