Abstract :
Spatially variant interconnects (SVIs), such as the perfect shuffle, crossover and banyan, show great potential in the fields of optical computing and optical communications. Two dimensional forms of these interconnects offer even more power than stacked one dimensional systems. The authors present a method of fabricating such two-dimensional interconnects in a volume holographic material to provide efficient, compact and modular optical interconnection schemes
