All optical degenerate mode-group multiplexing using a Mode Selective Switch

A Mode Selective Switch based around an LCoS Spatial Light Modulator is demonstrated to optically demultiplex modes with the same propagation constants to the same output fibres, using a common phase mask for all channels. © 2012 IEEE.

A low latency optical top of rack switch for data centre networks with minimized processor energy load

We propose a low latency optical data center top of rack switch using recirculation buffering and a hybrid MZ/SOA switch architecture to reduce the network power dissipated on future optically connected server chips by 53%. © OSA 2014.
