摘要
An active complementary optical tap made in an electro-optic polymer waveguide is reported for the first time. This device is the critical component of an optical railtap, a system capable of providing many optical interconnects with a single laser source. The device was fabricated by selective photobleaching of a uniformly poled polymer layer, and complementary switching was demonstrated.
