All-optical coherent processing via cascading of second-order nonlinearities

Gaetano Assanto, Irina Torelli, S. Trillo +1 more

Based on cascading of second-order nonlinearities we propose novel schemes for all-optical signal processing exploiting the tensorial nature of the susceptibility. Waves of the same frequency and orthogonal polarizations can interact via the generated second-harmonic, with an indirect energy transfer and the consequent possibility of gain and transistor action, polarization switching, amplitude and phase modulation.

Monochromatic all-optical gate with 1 ps response time

Jerome Paye, Daniele Hulin

A semiconductor nonlinear Fabry–Perot based on the optical Stark nonlinearity is designed as an optical gate. The device is driven by 1.2 ps light pulses with a spectrum narrower than the transmission resonance peak of the device to allow cascaded operation. One picosecond switching-on and -off times are demonstrated with 5:1 contrast ratio, in single-wavelength operation. Owing to its planar structure and ultrafast switching time, this device is the fastest all-optical gate for monochromatic parallel processing ever reported.
