摘要
A micro-opto-mechanical 1 x 2 switch has been realised using silicon oxynitride (SiON) planar waveguide technology. The operational principle of the switch is based on the mechanical deflection of a cantilever beam due to electrostatic interaction. The device concept and performance is reported. The switch is monolithically integrated on a silicon substrate and has many; potential applications in fibre-optic local area networks.
