Abstract

Various particular embodiments include a primary waveguide including an end section; cantilevered waveguides, each cantilevered waveguide including an end section disposed adjacent the end section of the primary waveguide; and control pins for applying an electrical bias to the cantilevered waveguides to selectively displace the end sections of the cantilevered waveguides away from the end section of the primary waveguide.
