Optical Bistability in Multimode Systems with Second-and Third-order Dispersive Nonlinearity

F.‐J. Schütte, Kurt Germey, R. Tiebel +1 more

Mutual optical bistability is found for several modes in open cavities containing second- or third-order nonlinear materials. The quantum-statistical treatment yields the Fokker-Planck equation for any system of damped boson modes. Under certain conditions it is possible to state the extrema of the steady solution of the Fokker-Planck equation. They are compared with the steady states resulting from the classical deterministic treatment. In some cases both statements coincide.

Noiseless Transfer of Nonclassical Light through Bistable Systems

Yu. M. Golubev, Mikhail I. Kolobov

We consider dispersive optical bistability with nonclassical driving field from a sub-Poissonian laser. The bistable system consists of an optical cavity filled with a resonant atomic medium. We calculate analytically the photocurrent noise spectrum at the output of the bistable system and find complete noise reduction close to the upper turning point of the bistability curve. This proves a possibility of using nonclassical light in optical bistability without destructing its quantum statistics.
