Abstract
We report on modulation, directional switching, and deflection of guided waves actuated by nano-mechanically induced effective-refractive-index changes ΔN. The integrated optical (IO) devices are actuated electrically. No electrooptic materials are required; glass waveguides on silicon are used.
