Abstract

Optical switches are considered to represent attractive components in all-optical networks as, for example, for circuit protection switching to by-pass a faulty system or cable, and in optical cross connects. Switching of cable TV in LANs, of high bit rate data in the optical backplanes of a computer and optical signals in sensors and vehicles (fly-by-wire) may be further applications in the telecommunications, microsystems and automotive area. High performance at low cost may be achieved if polymer waveguide technology is used.
