Abstract:We demonstrate the operation and rapid reconfiguration of a 12x12 Acousto-Optic Photonic Crossbar (AOPC). This AOPC can implement any desired permutation, fan-in, or fan-out interconnection between any subset out of twelve single-mode input fibers into any subset out of twelve single-mode output fibers. The system uses one large-aperture Acousto-Optic Deflector (AOD) driven by a sum-of-tones RF-waveform produced by an arbitrary waveform generator ( ARB) and computed from an experimentally measured lookup table… Show more
