  • Abstract
    Theoretical and experimental design considerations for single-mode-crossing switches at the wavelength of 1.32 mu m are presented. The dependence of extinction ratio on branch angle for the extended electrodes and the estimation of fabrication tolerances of the crossing channel structure are discussed. It is also shown that crossing channel devices required a precise control of fabrication parameters.<>
