Careful phase bias control and traveling-wave design are used to improve the high-speed perfor- mance. Over a broadband wavelength range, high-speed operation up to 30 Gbit/s with a 4.5 dB-5.5 dB extinction ratio is experimentally demonstrated with a low driving voltage of 3 V.展开更多

The footprint of this switch matrix is only 4.6 mm×1.0 mm. Using single-arm modulation, the crosstalk measured in this test is-13 dB --27 dB. And a maximum crosstalk deterioration of 6d B caused by two-path interference is also found.展开更多
