| Abstract(in English) | Silica-based thermo-optic switches(TOSW)are key devices in WDM optical network systems such as optical cross connect systems. The recent increase in the number of channels in the network requires the large scale and more compact switches. Furthermore, we have to consider the decrease in the driving power. This paper reports our application of super high delta waveguides and heat insulating grooves to a 2x2 TOSW. We discuss compact TOSW with super high delta waveguides and heat isulating grooves, which size is only 30% that of conventional TOSW. We also describe both our theoretical and experimental results of heat insulationg grooves, and successfully achieved very low switching power of 45mW. |
