We propose a hybrid optical bistable device based on a fibre Bragg grating. The experimental set-up is designed by using real communication components. The optical bistable characteristics are simulated. The feedback nonlinearity and the delay time of the device are emphasized. We discuss the potential of such a device in sensor applications.
