Abstract

Vast data processing rates of 1010 ~ 1012 bits per second have been predicted for parallel, all optical switching arrays(1). However, for reasons of economy of both space and energy the attainment of such rates will depend strongly upon the space-bandwidth (i.e. spatial resolution) of the array(2). Transverse coupling between switching elements must therefore be minimised to take full advantage of the potentially high data rates offered by optics.
