Ultrahigh index contrast planar polymeric strictly non-blocking 1024x1024 cross-connect switch matrix

We report on the first 1024×1024 switch designed in a planar lightwave circuit, enabled by the 30% refractive index contrast achievable in our buried-channel polymer waveguides. We present architectures, design considerations, and implementation schemes.
