Abstract

An N*N self-routing planar network suitable for fabricating optical space switches on lithium niobate substrate is presented. The network has O(N/sup 2/) cross points, good modularity and expandability. It also has no waveguide crossovers and no differential attenuation between any of the input and output pairs. A self-routing control can be applied to this network, which is indispensable for ATM switching systems.
