Abstract

In this paper, a Nano-opto-mechanical (NOM) switch is designed, simulated and experimentally demonstrated, using the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT)-like effects of coupled-ring resonator. The control of the switch is realized by optical force between the silicon waveguide and the dielectric substrate. As the injection pump power increases from 0 to 6 mW, the normalized power of transmission peak at 1553.3 nm decreases from 1 to 0.02, and the position of the initial transmission peak has a 7.8-GHz red shift. The proposed NOM switch can be potentially applied in all-optical network.
