Abstract :
A 16-channel integrated optical data preprocessor based on a Mach-Zhender interferometer configuration has been fabricated on a LiNbO3 substrate. The fabrication procedure is reviewed and a detailed discussion of the steps utilized to integrate the individual components is presented. The results of the device testing experiments are also discussed.
