Large-Scale Optical Switch Utilizing Multistage Cyclic Arrayed-Waveguide Gratings for Intra-Datacenter Interconnection

We develop a design method for creating a large-scale optical switch consisting of two sub-switch parts, i.e., delivery-and-coupling switches and wavelength-routing switches based on cyclic arrayed-waveguide gratings, where the available optical-power budget is optimally allocated to the two sub-swi...
