Toggle switch from optical bistability to multistability via an elliptically polarized field

Xiang-an Yan, Boquan Ren, Liqiang Wang +2 more

In this paper, we propose a scheme for manipulating the behavior of optical bistability (OB) and optical multistability (OM) in an N-type four-level atomic system. In the scheme, quantum interference is optimized by the left-handed and the right-handed fields of an elliptically polarized field (EPF). The threshold and the hysteresis cycle shape of OB and OM can be controlled by modulating the intensity of the EPF. Especially, the transition from OB to OM or vice versa can also be easily realized by proper tuning the phase difference between the left-handed and right-handed polarized fields under the optimal intensity of the EPF.

Ultralinear bistable electro-optic polarization modulator

Albert Feldman

An optical device utilizing optical feedback has been constructed with a Pockels cell and polarizing components. Two modes of operation of the device are demonstrated. Both modes exhibit optical bistability. It is demonstrated that in one mode of operation the nonlinear dependence of the output intensity as a function of an input optical or electrical signal can be made arbitrarily small compared to the linear dependence.

Magneto-Optical Bistability in Diluted Magnetic Semiconductor Cd 1-x Mn x Te

Jizhou Liu, Xuezhong Wang, Chenjia Chen +1 more

Magneto-optical bistability in diluted magnetic semiconductor Cd 1-x Mn x Te is realized. The bistability is created by the giant Faraday effect in Cd 1-x Mn x Te and the saturation characteristic of the magneto-optical feedback system. The bistability characteristic depends on the orientation angle α of the polarizers of the Faraday modulator and on the temperature of the sample.
