Abstract
We describe in further detail a demonstration of a monolithic 1 × 2
silicon wavelength-selective switch in silicon photonics. The switching has
a flexible grid with 32 pixels on a pitch of 100 GHz. It is extremely
compact, being only 3.0 × 5.5 mm<sup>2</sup>, and it can potentially be mass-produced by a silicon foundry. It
requires improvements in many characteristics, though, most notably
insertion loss, resolution, and pixel count.
