Pitchfork bifurcation using a two-beam nonlinear Fabry–Perot interferometer: an analytical study

Marc Haelterman, Paul Mandel

A recent modal theory of nonlinear planar resonators is applied to the analysis of the steady transmission characteristics of the two-beam nonlinear Fabry-Perot interferometer. An analytical study, based on the planewave approximation, is presented that shows the potential applications of the device. In particular, a flip-flop mode of operation, derived from a pitchfork bifurcation, is predicted. Its salient feature is to require only positive triggering pulses.

Nonlinear Fabry-Perot characteristics of a thin film near the TIR state

I. C. Khoo, Y.J. Hou, Steven M. Shepard +1 more

The electrodynamic and nonlinear optical properties of an interface between two media, one of which is nonlinear, have been studied in the context of optical switching and bistability. In this paper we consider the case in which a thin-film nonlinear material is sandwiched between two higher-index dielectric media; i.e., there are two interfaces. For an optical beam incident near the total internal re- flection state the large reflectivity of the two inter- faces gives rise to Fabry-Perot transmission/re- flection. This together with the nonlinear phase shift that can be induced in the thin film makes it possible for the system to perform switching and bistable operations.

Output property of a nonlinear Fabry-Perot interferometer

Yanyan Liu, Jun-Bo Wang, Shixiao Le +1 more

This paper discusses the output property of a Fabry-Perot interferometer filled with a nonlinear medium. Because of the optical-field-induced refractive index, the transmissivity across monochromatic beam through the interferometer depends on the distribution of the beam intensity. The output beam is different from the input. As the reflectivity of two mirrors increases, the distinction changes clear, and there is a change close to discontinue.
