Design and fabrication of POF/PCF based optical switch for Local Area Network (LAN) system

The polymer optical fiber (POF) is mostly suitable for house held optical switches because of its large core diameter. A high performance optical switch building process is described in this paper. In order to achieve high performance switching and low data loss, we examine different technique whi...
