Optical bistability by photothermal displacement in grating coupler configuration: a theoretical interpretation

P. Vincent, Hassan Akhouayri, M. Nevière

The bistable behavior of an external grating coupler on a planar waveguide, which was previously discovered experimentally, is investigated by means of the electromagnetic theory of gratings. The theory accounts for all shapes of the observed hysteresis loops. The various shapes of the hysteresis loops, including the butterflylike shapes, are explained.

Bistability Of Reflection From Optical Systems With Dynamic Gratings

I. L. Rubtsova, A. I. Khiznyak

The schemes of optical bistable systems employing the dynamic holographic gratings are analysed. A counter-propagating four-wave mixing in a medium with cubic nonlinesrity and local response is used for dynamic grating recording.

Grating optical bistability

Ye H

In this paper, a grating optical bistable device is described. Changing the relative displacement between two symmetrical gratings, a periodic modulation of the light intensity is realized, Taking such a system as the transmission part and using He-Ne laser and white light, we have performed the optical bistable experiment. The experimental results are in good agreement with theoretical analyses.

Gratings in nonlinear optics and optical bistability

P. Vincent, Nicole A. Paraire, M. Nevière +2 more

A new use of gratings in nonlinear optics is presented, i.e., the realization of bistable components. The device studied here consist of grating couplers ruled on a Kerr nonlinear medium, which use the guided-wave resonance to increase the local field and thus the nonlinearities. The result is that they are intrinsic bistable optical systems with high-speed, low pumping thresholds, and geometry well adapted to optical integration. First, a linear electromagnetic study of the devices is presented. It follows optimizing the grating parameters in order to get the best coupling between the incident beam and the guided mode inside the corrugated waveguide. Then a graphical construction is given that demonstrates the bistable character of the system in nonlinear optics. Next a nonlinear analysis of the devices is rigorously derived from Maxwell equations. It states precisely the predictions of the graphical construction and allows comparison of the effectiveness of the guided-wave resonance with the surface plasmon resonance in order to reduce the threshold of bistability.

Optical bistability in nonlinear long period fiber grating

Vishal Jain, Santosh Pawar, SHUBHADA KUMBHAJ +1 more

The nonlinear phenomena of optical bistablity is investigated analytically in chalcogenide glass long period fiber grating. Using the basic sets of nonlinear coupled mode equation the expression for the transmittivity of grating has been derived under nonlinear Kerr regime. To examine the bistable charateristics of the grating, the operating wavelength is considerd slightly above the resonance wavelength of 1550 nm i.e. for off resonance condition where detuning parameter δ≠0. It is observed that the intensity of the transmitted wave increases with increasing input intensity and reaches its maximum value at particular intensity. On gradual reduction of the input intensity, the transmitted intensity does not retrace the same path, resulting in a hysteresis loop. This hysteresis loop shows that the LPFG supports the occurrence of optical bistability.
