Abstract

The 4X4 LiNbo3 optical wave-guide switch matrix , which is composed of five directional couplers, is designed. Alternative ? ? electrode structure is adopted for easier fabrication. The guides of switch matrix fabricated successfully are shown in this paper. Light testing is proceeded and the result is also shown .Some important switch matrix's performance are calculated theoretically as following: switch time 2.9ns; switch voltage 25.6v; insertion loss 7.0 17 dB.
