Description

A kind of two-dimentional optical switch matrix and method thereof that adopts double piezoelectric crystal chip driver to make
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of two-dimentional optical switch matrix and preparation method thereof, relate to a kind of optical switch matrix and method thereof that adopts double piezoelectric crystal chip driver to make or rather, belong to optical communication field.
Background technology
At present, it is more and more general to adopt optical fiber to carry out the long-range transmission of voice and data, and the requirement of the data capacity that can carry light also improves constantly.How more effectively to utilize the bandwidth of existing fiber, improving transfer efficiency is a vital problem, current, than successful method is to adopt wavelength-division multiplex technique (WDM:Wave Division Multiplexing), and it can carry out information transmission by the light wave with a plurality of wavelength independently on same optical fiber.Along with the widespread use of WDM technology, increasing to the demand of conversion of the light path of various complexity and routing device in network service.Photoswitch plays crucial effect in optical-fiber network, optical switch matrix particularly, it is to make up light and insert/core of division multiplexer equipment (OADM:OpticalAdd-Drop Module) and the cross interconnected equipment of light (OXC:Optical Cross Connect).OADM is one of optical-fiber network key equipment, is generally used for Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) and backbone network.The concrete mode on road is a lot of up and down to realize the OADM light signal, but in most cases all used photoswitch realize on the light signal in the dense wave division multipurpose optical-fiber network/following road function.OXC is the nucleus equipment of WDM light exchange, adopt the photoswitch that volume is littler, price is more cheap to replace expensive high speed electronic switch device, be that direct sunshine cross-connect technology substitutes traditional light-electrical-optical (OEO) switch technology, the development of all optical network is had strategic importance.Based on the switch of electricity conversion is light exchange towards specific transfer rate, in case the network speed-raising, will upgrade and adapt to transfer rate faster in electric aspect.On the contrary, light directly exchange is transparent to transfer rate, and the photoswitch that is equipped with can satisfy the demand of following optical-fiber network speed-raising equally now.Photoswitch makes OADM and OXC have the dynamic-configuration reciprocal exchange of business and supportive protection switch function, and when network broke down, node switched to the fault business in the alternate routing, has strengthened viability and the protect networks and the recovery capability of network.Along with the development of optical transfer network technology, high capacity, high speed exchange, transparent, low-loss photoswitch will play even more important effect in development of optical network.
Mechanical optical switch is a kind of very important photoswitch, mechanical optical switch have insertion loss lower (<2dB), the isolation height (>45dB), not shaken by sheet and advantage such as wavelength affects, widespread use in optical communication.Mechanical optical switch is exactly for one type to reach straight-through light path or stop light path by the control minute surface, realizes the switching of light.In optical design, the optical switch matrix structure of switching in the 3 D auto space is called three-dimensional structure, and the optical switch matrix structure of switching at two-dimentional free space is called two-dimensional structure.
Two dimension N * N optical switch matrix be by one group of two dimension mirror array and mutually perpendicular optical fiber collimator capable/row line up optical texture (Fig. 1), two-dimentional N * N optical switch matrix needs N 2Individual minute surface is finished N 2The optical cross connect of individual free space, if to realize from the capable input of m switch to n row output (m, n<=N), must be at m capable and n row point of crossing minute surface is arranged, the while is not having minute surface on other position of intersecting point on the light working direction.Have only this point of crossing minute surface of maintenance to the input reflection of light, the light of just setting up capable input of m and the output of n row is connected.According to this principle, at a time, can realize the arbitrary group of exchange that is input to N output from N.It is exactly the state of controlling the point of crossing minute surface that the two dimension optical switch matrix carries out the light exchange: minute surface can also can correspondingly, produce two kinds of different control methods from " nothing " to " having " from " having " to " nothing ".The first, the point of crossing minute surface initially exists, and during the light exchange, the point of crossing minute surface disappears; It two is, the point of crossing minute surface does not initially exist, and during the light exchange, minute surface appears in the position, point of crossing.More than the mode of motion of two kinds of control mirror status the translation or the various rotation of vertical paper are arranged usually.Obviously, the mirror status number that first method need change is that N (N-1) is individual, and the mirror status number that second method need change is N.In two-dimentional optical switch matrix, because minute surface square formation and optical fiber collimator come in the plane, greatly facilitate the coupling and the encapsulation of photoswitch, and mirror status has only two kinds, so the positioning accuracy request of mirror position is low, tolerance is big, and correspondent control circuits is simple, generally speaking, open loop control just can meet the demands.But the extendability of this structure is subjected to the restriction of light path and chip size significantly, is no more than 32 ports (needing 1024 micro mirrors) usually.
One of feature of two-dimentional optical switch matrix shown in Figure 1 is the minute surface square formation of solid matter, generally speaking, and should be very close to each other between the shortest principles and requirements adjacent mirror facets of light path; Two of feature is centers over against minute surface, the center of optical fiber collimator.More than 2 be the distinguishing feature of this structure, be referred to as two-dimentional minute surface solid matter optical switch matrix.
Two dimension minute surface solid matter optical switch matrix exists following two weak points.One is that minute surface does not allow in the diagonal translation, and this is because do not allow the space of minute surface along the diagonal translation between the solid matter minute surface; Its two center for the minute surface of not working can not be in sustained height with the collimating apparatus center, because light path is to propagate on the locality of minute surface arrangement, idle minute surface can not stop the light path propagation, need to disappear, the center of the minute surface that just requires not work can not be with the collimating apparatus center on same height.
High performance optical switch matrix needs the optical fiber collimator of long reach and low insertion loss to carry out free-space optical transmission and coupling, present commercial miniature fiber collimating apparatus is fit to the input and output optically-coupled of optical switch matrix, but all at the hundreds of micron, this has proposed requirement to driver to the beam waist diameter of hot spot usually.
Array driver in the optical switch matrix is most important, and the driver discreteness that adopts conventional art to make is big, and volume is big, is not suitable for making the array device.Optical switch matrix requires each driver each side character (comprising size, drive performance) all to want the same, just can produce the high drive array of consistance; Optical switch matrix requires the volume of each driver little, just can produce the little optical switch matrix of volume, is fit to the needs of following device development.Adopting microelectric technique to make microelectromechanical systems (MEMS:Micro electro mechanical system) on silicon substrate is the new technology of rising in the world the end of the eighties in last century, represents the direction of WeiLai Technology development.MEMS itself is a kind of technology, and its intension is very extensive, is not confined to silicon materials and IC technology, has developed many materials and the manufacturing process MEMS family that enriches constantly.The surperficial micro-processing technology of typical MEMS technology---silicon can be processed high conformity, drive array that size is little on silicon substrate, many in the world companies adopt this technological development optical switch matrix.The easiest realization of MEMS electrostatic actuator array, but have the shortcoming that displacement is little or corner is little; The MEMS electromagnetic driver has big displacement, but for array device, electromagnetic screen and power consumption are difficult points; The MEMS hot driver can be realized large deformation, but heating is a pair of contradiction with heat radiation, certainly will cause the utmost point asymmetry of switching time.Through well-designed MEMS electrostatic actuator, for example the lever electrostatic actuator of OMM company can drive micro mirror and realize that light switches, but the reliability of device remains to be confirmed.
