Abstract

The invention discloses an ultra-large bandwidth silicon-based waveguide MEMS optical switch. The optical switch is mainly composed of three parts: input waveguide, cross waveguide with nano-slant groove, and output waveguide. The crossover waveguide is composed of two identical orthogonal elliptical cylinders. The four ports of the crossover waveguide respectively extend the single-mode strip waveguide as the input / output waveguide; The two waveguides are also fully etched with nano-grooves, which penetrate through the lower cladding layer near the cross-waveguide and the nano-groove. By adjusting the voltage applied to both ends of the cross-waveguide to adjust the width of the nano-chute, in this way the direct or full optical path reflection. The invention switches the propagation path of the optical switch by adjusting the voltage applied to the cross waveguide, has a simple structure, is convenient for integration and cascading, and is expected to realize an arrayed waveguide optical switch with miniaturization, low cost, and fast adjustment speed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an ultra-large bandwidth silicon-based waveguide MEMS optical switch, in particular to an integrated silicon-based waveguide MEMS optical switch capable of controlling the light transmission direction by adding a bias voltage. Background technique [0002] Due to the rapid growth of data traffic and the increasing requirements for reconfigurability and scalability of data center networks, fast optical circuit switches in data center networks have been extensively studied. The traditional switch with electricity as the core can no longer meet the needs of high-speed and large-capacity communication, so people are gradually turning their attention to optical communication. Since the 1990s, optical communication has developed rapidly, and the status of optical interconnection and optical switches, which are key links in optical communication, has naturally become more and more important. [0003] Optical switches are key componen...
