Abstract
A novel optical waveguide phase-delayed two-state switch that consists of a pair of asynchronous waveguides is presented. The performance of the switch is analyzed in detail. The simple structure of the device may lead to an easy implementation in optical switching, optical interconnects, and sensor applications.<>
