An apparatus and method for a radiation switching array, including a first radiation wave modulator and a second radiation wave modulator proximate the first modulator, each the modulator having a transport for receiving a wave component, the transport including a waveguide having a guiding region and one or more bounding regions; and a plurality of constituents disposed in the waveguide for enhancing an influencer response in the waveguide; and an influencer, operatively coupled to the transport and responsive to a control signal, for affecting a radiation-amplitude-controlling property of the wave component by inducing the influencer response in the waveguide as the wave component travels through the transport; and a controller, coupled to the modulators, for selectively asserting each the control signal to independently control the amplitude-controlling property of each the modulator. A switching method including (a) receiving a wave component at each of a plurality of transports proximate each other, each transport including a waveguide having a guiding region and one or more bounding regions with a plurality of constituents disposed in the waveguide for enhancing an influencer response in the waveguide; and (b) affecting independently a radiation-amplitude- controlling property of each the wave component as it travels through each the waveguide. ® KIPO & WIPO 2007 |
