Observation of mirrorless optical bistability and optical limiting using Stark tunable gases

D. Pepper, M. B. Klein

We report on the observation of optical limiting and bistability using Stark tunable gases in a mirrorless geometry. Device applications such as multilevel logic elements and optical limiters are presented. Polarization and saturation effects as well as switching energies are discussed.
