ABSTRACT:
Disclosed are an optical interconnection network and process, having a phase-conjugate mirror and input and output side channels. In the network, time-reversed wave, of a light beam propagated through the output side channel, is generated in the phase-conjugate mirror to cause an interconnection between the input side channel and the output side channel. The energy of the time-reversed wave comes from a light beam propagated through the input side channel.
