In this paper, the performance of a digital optical switch, operating at the infrared communications wavelength of 1550 nm and based on the thermo-optic effect in amorphous silicon, are investigated. We prove that the strong thermo-optic effect of amorphous silicon, combined with the possibility of
An effective switch translates an external force through components of minimal complexity into a signal that regulates a desired output. A series of macromolecular switches have now been constructed that can be initiated by chemical, electrochemical, photochemical, or thermal stimuli. [1] Recent att
