CA 2127968
Disclosed is an optical switch comprising a first stage for mounting a first optical fiber- thereon, a second stage for mounting thereon a plurality of second optical fibers opposing the first optical fiber by V-shaped grooves in an aligned state, a first driving mechanism for displacing the first stage in an aligning direction of the plurality of second optical fibers during optical path switching, a controller for detecting a displacement amount of the first stage and controlling the first driving mechanism, and a second driving mechanism for moving the second stage upward during optical path switching to selectively couple the first optical fiber with an arbitrary second optical fiber among the plurality of second optical fibers in a V-shaped groove, thereby switching an optical path of an optical fiber.
