摘要:
A low cost, multimode optical fiber switch in which a MEMS mirror is used to serially reflect input light from a plurality of input optical fibers into a single output fiber or from a single optical fiber into a plurality of output fibers. In a planned demonstration prototype the output fiber is located in the center of four input fibers. In other preferred embodiments of the present invention an array of MEMS mirrors are utilized with a large bundle of fibers containing both input and output fibers. Each MEMS mirror is adapted to reflect light from a number of input fibers one-at-a-time into a single output fiber or to reflect light from a single input fiber into a number of output fibers one-at-a-time.
