Summary form only given. Photonic space switches will be very attractive elements for future communication networks. While simulations and theory have predicted limitations on the size of an N /spl times/ N semiconductor switch to be near 50-100 channels, practical concerns, such as, optical loss and physical size have limited monolithic InP crossconnects to arrays no larger than 4 /spl times/ 4. To address these issues, we report a novel compact optical switch that combines zero insertion loss and high contrast with a scaleable, compact architecture to act as a building block for large N /spl times/ N photonic crossconnects.
