Abstract:
An optical switch includes a substrate, a ring resonator formed on the substrate, a first waveguide formed on the substrate in optical coupling with the ring resonator, the first waveguide being configured to guide a WDM signal, an optical detector configured to detect an optical signal component in said ring resonator, a temperature regulator driven in response to an output signal of the optical detector, the temperature regulator being configured to change a temperature of the ring resonator, the ring resonator having a resonant wavelength corresponding to a wavelength of an optical signal component that constitutes the WDM signal, the ring resonator, the optical detector and the temperature regulator constituting together a feedback control system that locks the resonant wavelength of the ring resonator to the wavelength of the optical signal component in the WDM signal.
