The invention provides an optical switcing device, including a substrate having
at least one polarization-selective multiplexing grating; at least one polarization-selective
demultiplexing grating, and a polarization rotation element acting as a dynamic
plate, optically interposed between the optical path of said multiplexing
grating and said demultiplexing grating. The invention also provides a method for
producing an holographic plate having a plurality of holographic elements.
