Abstract
We have fabricated the largest integrated optical switch array to date—a square array of 16 interconnected Ti:LiNbO3 directional coupler electro‐optical switches. The devices operate at ∼11 V and have 4.6–15‐dB fiber‐device‐fiber insertion loss and extinction ratios from −12 to >−35 dB.Keywords
