We present a theoretical analysis of recently demonstrated ultrafast all-optical interferometric switching devices (based on Sagnac and Mach-Zehnder interferometers) that use a large optical nonlinearity in a resonant regime. These devices achieve ~10-ps switching windows and do not require high-energy optical control pulses. We theoretically analyze and compare one Sagnac and two Mach-Zehnder switching configurations.
我们对最近展示的超快全光干涉开关器件(基于萨尼亚克干涉仪和马赫-曾德尔干涉仪)进行了理论分析,这些器件在共振状态下利用了较大的光学非线性。这些器件实现了约10皮秒的开关窗口,并且不需要高能光控制脉冲。我们从理论上分析并比较了一种萨尼亚克开关配置和两种马赫-曾德尔开关配置。
