A massive port count WSS using planar lightwave circuit as optical input/output ports is proposed. We demonstrate a 1x93 LCOS-based WSS with less than 9.0 dB insertion loss and typically 37.0 GHz 0.5 dB passband width.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
