Abstract
A holographic switch with a ferroelectric liquid-crystal spatial light modulator is proposed for large switching systems such as those used in subscriber networks. Preliminary experiments have achieved a one-input, 48-output switch. The relationship between the power of the control-light source and the number of outputs is calculated; the results agree well with the experiment. The calculation suggests that 10384-output switching can be obtained with a 25-mW control-light source. It should therefore be possible to control a large-scale switch with low-power control-light sources.
