Abstract
The adoption and success of space-division multiplexing (SDM) depends on highly integrated and cost effective devices and components. We compare the strengths and weaknesses of SDM components including silicon photonics, 3D waveguides, all-fiber devices, and bulk-optics wavelength selective switches.
