Abstract

A novel < -34.13dB optical interchannel crosstalk, 35.3 μs switching speed, polarisation independent, reversible 2 × 2 fibre optic switch is demonstrated using four ferroelectric liquid crystal 90° polarisation rotators sandwiched between cube polarisation beam splitters and combiners that also act as crosstalk rejection filters. Applications of the switch include multiwavelength adddrop routing.
