我们研制了一种16/SPL times/16光矩阵开关模块，其中集成了硅基热光开关芯片和驱动电路。该模块表现出优异的性能水平，即低插入损耗和高消光比。这是迄今为止报道的最大规模的波导型矩阵开关模块。具有串并控制信号转换功能的驱动电路使我们能够实现一种新的模块结构，该结构简单且灵活，适用于更大规模的开关。
We developed a 16/spl times/16 optical matrix switch module in which we incorporated a silica-based thermooptic switch chip and driving circuits. The module exhibited excellent levels of performance, namely a low insertion loss and a high extinction ratio. This is the largest scale waveguide-type matrix switch module yet reported. Driving circuits with a serial-to-parallel control signal conversion function enabled us to realize a new module structure that is both simple and flexible for use with larger scale switches.
