Nonlinear resonators for all-optical signal processing

By: Material type: ArticleArticleLanguage: English Publication details: KIT Scientific Publishing 2007Description: 1 electronic resource (XX,126 p. p.)ISBN:
  • KSP/1000006998
  • 9783866441507
Subject(s): Online resources: Summary: All-optical signal processing will be used in future communication networks. We discuss a new and generic scheme for such devices. The basic configuration comprises an asymmetric resonator within an active or passive nonlinear medium. This arrangement enables all-optical flip-flop operation and switching with a reduced threshold. In addition, a novel optical isolator concept based on resonator asymmetries is is introduced. The model is also applicable to photonic crystal based resonators.
