Abstract: | A polarization-independent LiNbO3 strictly blocking 8×8 matrix switch has been developed. A relatively low insertion loss, below 12 dB, has been obtained by a reduction in bending loss, using a wide bent waveguide width. The switch has less than -18.7-dB crosstalk and about 85-V switching voltage at any incident polarization with 1.3-μ wavelength light |
