A novel optical bistable multiple-quantum-well phase modulator

C. Park, Kumar Shiralagi, Ravi Droopad +1 more

The authors present a new type of optically bistable phase modulator utilizing a self electrooptic effect device (SEED) integrated with an electrooptic wavelength modulator. An electrically bistable SEED, operating on the principle of the quantum-confined Stark effect, controls the bias voltage across an electrooptic waveguide phase modulator to produce optical bistability. A control signal at 0.848 mu m, corresponding to the first electron to heavy hole exciton transition in GaAs/AlGaAs multiple-quantum-well is used to switch 1.152 mu m light propagating through a waveguide in a direction normal to the control beam.>

Review Of Integrated Bistable Optical Devices Construction

Tadeusz Maciak, Jerzy Kruszewski

Bistable optical devices have been suggested for a number of applications (switching, optical memory, binary logic, discrimination, amplifications, clipping, limiting and pulse shaping) in optical signal processing and communication system. Recently, several integrated optical bistable devices have been made available. Most of them have performed by using LiNb03 as electrooptical waveguide modulator. A review of integrated bistable devices based on waveguide optical modulators is presented under this paper.

Symmetric self-electrooptic effect device

Anthony L. Lentine, Harvard Scott Hinton, David A. B. Miller +3 more

We demonstrate an integrated symmetric self-electrooptic effect device (S-SEED) consisting of two quantum well PIN diodes electrically connected in a series. The device acts as a bistable optical memory element with individual set S and reset R inputs and complementary outputs (optical S-R latch). The switching point is determined by the ratio of the two inputs, making the device insensitive to optical power supply fluctuations when both power beams are derived from the same source; i.e., it solves the problem of critical biasing common to most optically bistable devices.
