Abstract
Summary form only given. We have recently demonstrated measurable steering of spatial solitons and the weak signal beams guided within by means of an electronically induced prism in AlGaAs slab waveguides. Here we report on further development of this work, showing the feasibility of an 1 X 4 interconnect based on soliton steering.
