Magneto optical switch is widely used in high-speed all-optical communication network. Normally, it is composed of PBS (polarization beam splitter), FR (Faraday rotator), displace (polarized light separator) and PBC (polarization beam combiner). MEISU's Magneto-optical switch uses faraday magneto-optical effect for optical switching. Currently, the types of magneto-optical fiber. The CrystaLatch™ Solid-State Fiber Optic Switch family features fast response and ultra-high reliability exceeding 100 billion cycles. When struck by successive ultra-short laser pulses it exhibits 'toggle switching' that could increase the capacity of the global fiber optic cable network by an order of magnitude. Researchers at CRANN and the. An all-fiber magneto-optic switch is designed in this paper, which makes use of Faraday Effect, fiber-type polarizing beam splitter/combiner (PBS/PBC), magneto-optic crystal fiber, nanosecond impulser and high-speed magnetic field control technology.
