Abstract

We introduce here a designing of 2x2 MZI (Mach-Zehnder Interferometer) optical switch. The switching of the optical signal is realized with the use of fast electro-optical effects. The designed model has a very high switching capability and is extremely reliable. Various design parameters have been varied to improve the performance of the switch. Then the basic 2×2 switch is exploited in design of 4×4 banyan switch. Banyan switch is a good candidate for further use in higher order switches. Simulation results are shown for 2×2 and 4×4 banyan architecture with low cross-talk values.

Highlights

  • Niobate are formed by the Electro-optic effect is a diffusion of titanium dopant into change in refractive index of the the lithium niobate host

  • LiNbO3 is based on its large electro- opto co- effects we used three electrode set with buffer layer on efficient

  • An optimum 2x2 Mach-Zehnder interferometer optical switch based on electro-opto effects has been successfully designed for switching optical signal with wavelength 1300nm

Summary

Introduction

Niobate are formed by the Electro-optic effect is a diffusion of titanium dopant into change in refractive index of the the lithium niobate host. To form material with the variation of a waveguide, a stripe of titanium intensity of an electric field with thickness before diffusion applied to it; this is the linear of .05 micrometers is deposited electro-optic effect. Waveguide this effect is less than 1 ns. LiNbO3 is based on its large electro- opto co- effects we used three electrode set with buffer layer on efficient First region has consists of a 3 dB splitter and a 3 dB combiner, electrode with width of 50 micrometers and zero voltage. By changing the Second and third electrodes have width of 26 effective refractive index of one of the arms, the phase micrometers and zero voltage. The whole device is designed on layout designer of OPTIBPM tool of OPTIWAVE software
