Core Switch Using Optically Induced Long-Period Gratings

We propose and theoretically demonstrate an optically induced long-period gratings (OLPGs) based core switching technique for multi-core fibers (MCFs). This switching technique is fully reconfigurable in terms of signal wavelength and input–output fiber cores. The switching window and its efficiency...
