<p>A radiation deflector assembly, primarily for deflecting optical radiation, comprises three waveguides mounted in V-shaped grooves (2, 3, 4) of a substrate (1) which are substantially coplanar. A cantilevered beam (6) integral with the substrate (1) is positioned in a cavity (5) of the substrate such that when the beam (6) is in a first position radiation passes between optical waveguides in two of the grooves (2, 3) and when the beam is in a second position optical radiation passes between optical waveguides in another two of the grooves (2, 4). Control means including electrodes (8, 9) is responsive to control signals to generate a suitable electrostatic field for moving the beam (6) between the two positions.</p> |
