Abstract
Semiconductor optical switches are essential devices in achieving compact wideband communication systems, integratively and practically. Total internal reflection (TIR) optical switches using the refractive-index change from the bandfilling effect in InGaAsP/InP, which is about two orders of magnitude greater than that caused by the electro-optic effect, have been reported.1-2
