Low Loss Optical Core Router
Our interferometer-based router is constructed by optics with a low angle of incidence and cross-aligned electro-optic crystals, achieving the polarization-maintaining operation with a minimal number of optical components. Photon polarization serves as an essential quantum information carrier in quantum information and measurement applications. In this work, we present a new optical routing framework, O-Router for future low-power on-chip optical interconnect integration utilizing silicon compatible nano-photonic de-vices. As the heart of optical network on chips, the photonic routers implement the function of routing package from input ports to output ports.
