Abstract

The invention relates to an optical switch having an operating principle based on tilting and/or deforming a reflector element or a movable refractor having flexible supporting elements of the beam, coil, bar, etc. type, and electrostatic and/or electromagnetic actuation. The path of an input beam is modified by means of a mobile reflector or refractor element that tilts in various positions, thereby switching one or more input light beams to one or more output ports. Multiple switches of said type can also be arranged in series or in parallel in order to increase the number of input and output ports. The invention meets the needs of optical switching in computer data networks and in optical sensor networks, as most important uses.
