Description

The first path-independent insertion-loss (PILOSS) strictly non-blocking 4×4 silicon electro–optic switch matrix is reported. The footprint of this switch matrix is only 4.6 mm×1.0 mm. Using single-arm modulation, the crosstalk measured in this test is –13 dB∼ –27 dB. And a maximum crosstalk deterioration of 6dB caused by two-path interference is also found. (paper)
