Large displacement optical switching mechanism using SMA microactuator and magnetic latch

Large displacement optical switching mechanism using SMA microactuator and magnetic latch

POF (Plastic Optical Fiber) is more suitable than the quartz optical fiber for indoor LAN (Local Area Network), for example in-home or office networks because of its flexibility and ease of connection by relatively large core diameter.1 x 2 optical switches for indoor LAN using POF have been devel...
