Abstract
An optical switch based on the deflection of optical beams between two crossed channel waveguides by an electro‐optic grating was designed and tested. The waveguide medium is Ti‐diffused LiNbO3. At 30 V applied voltage, 92% depletion in the original channel and 48% deflection in the deflected channel was obtained.Keywords
