Abstract
We present results of the experimental verification of a concept of the previously proposed all-optical wavelength-selective multichannel switch based on an off-axis Wood zone plate in the millimeter waveband without the use of micromechanical devices or non-linear materials. A laboratory prototype of such a device is considered and its main parameters are discussed. It is shown that the optical isolation of switched channels for the switch based on an off-axis zone plate can reach 15 dB at a frequency difference of 25 GHz in the frequency range of 93 – 136 GHz.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
