Abstract: An apparatus and method for an influencer structure. The apparatus includes a conductive element disposed in one or more radiation-propagating dielectric structures of a waveguide having a guiding region and one or more bounding regions, the conductive element responsive to an influencer signal to influence an amplitude-controlling property of the waveguide; and a coupling system for communicating the influencer signal to the conductive element. A method of operating an influencer includes: a) communicating an influencer signal to a conductive element disposed in one or more radiation-propagating dielectric structures of a waveguide having a guiding region and one or more bounding regions; and b) influencing, responsive to the influencer signal, an amplitude-controlling property of the waveguide.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for a switch for a radiation signal, the switch including a first waveguiding channel having a guiding region and one or more bounding regions coupled to the guiding region, the first waveguiding channel including a first lateral guiding port in a portion of the bounding regions, the lateral guiding port responsive to an attribute of radiation propagating in the channel to selectively pass a portion of the radiation therethrough; and an influencer, coupled to the first waveguiding channel, for controlling the attribute of the radiation.
