A new crossing multimode channel waveguide electrooptical switch is described here. It has a 21-dB ONstate/OFF-state difference at 10 V of applied voltage, 0.4-dB insertion loss, 2.2-pF capacitance, and a total length less than 1.5 mm. It will be useful for providing a switching network for realizing an integrated optical computer communication data bus where electric signals from computers are converted into optical signals, switched by these switches, and then received and reconverted into electrical signals by a detector array.
本文描述了一种新型的交叉多模通道波导电光开关。在施加10V电压时，其通态/断态差值为21dB，插入损耗为0.4dB，电容为2.2pF，总长度小于1.5mm。它将有助于提供一个开关网络，以实现集成光学计算机通信数据总线，在该总线中，来自计算机的电信号被转换为光信号，由这些开关进行切换，然后由探测器阵列接收并重新转换为电信号。
