Abstract
For photonic switching there is a growing interest in III/V semiconductor based functions. Such components offer the capability of optical and electrical integration with other semiconductor devices even under low cost aspects. Based on interferometric principles /1/ we have developed a new InGaAsP/InP device with a wide range electronic tunability3of 23 nm: the Y-coupled cavity integrated interferometric injection (YCC-I3 laser /2−4/. For optical switching applications we consider this all active Y-shaped waveguide as a basic structure.
