Proposal of a phase-change optical switch using a low-loss MnTe thin film
We propose a novel low-loss phase-change optical switch using MnTe thin film, which has a smaller absorption coefficient than conventional phase-change materials. The designed phase-change optical switch has a loss of 0.388 dB, a crosstalk of -37.7 dB, and an extinction ratio of 37.3 dB.
