Cascadable MZI all-optical switch with separate ports for data- and control-signals

Demonstration of a new all-optical space switch, with separate in- and output ports for the data- and control-signal. At 10 GHz the crosstalk between copropagating data- and control-signal exceeds 20 dB, making the device interesting for future cascadation and bidirectional operation on a single chi...
