Abstract
This paper proposes a new optical and mechanical design for an optical crossconnect using MEMS 2D lens scanner. Optical simulation justified the use of telescope optics for low loss and compact OXC design. The suspensions and the electrostatic mechanism were designed in separate SOI layers to compress the device footprint and to accommodate more optical channels
