The invention discloses a track type micro-ring 2*4 thermo-optic switch prepared based on SOI material. The switch comprises a straight waveguide, a track type micro-ring waveguide prepared based on SOI material, and a thermal electrode arranged at the top layer. For the track type micro-ring waveguide, a bending waveguide and a short straight waveguide forms a closed track; coupling zones are formed between the track type micro-ring waveguide and direct waveguides; and the intersection parts of the direct waveguides employ multimode waveguide intersected structures. A digital electrical signal loaded by the thermal electrode arranged at the top layer is applied to realize rapid switching of optical channels. Therefore, simultaneous switching of the multi-input and multi-output optical signals can be realized; and the track type micro-ring 2*4 thermo-optic switch can be applied to working state detection of unit devices in the optical switch array, the optical routing, the optical logic gate design, and the integrated optical path.
