Design of an Opto-Mechanical On-Chip 1x2Optical Switch
A novel design of optical switch driven by opto-mechanical effect is presented.It employs a free-standing cantilever nanostring allowing a pump light to change the effective refractive index to switch the light path.Utilizing optimized device geometries with strong optomechanical interactions allows us to flexibly control the direction of output signal,enabling an optomechanical on-chip 1x2 optical switch.
