We describe optical bistability in monolithically integrated, curved-mirror Fabry-Perot microcavities. The cavities were fabricated by controlled formation of circular delamination buckles within sputtered Si/SiO(2) multilayers. The dominant source of the bistability is heating due to residual absorption in the mirror layers, which leads to out-of-plane deflection of the buckled mirror. Hysteresis occurs for submilliwatt input powers.
我们描述了单片集成的曲面镜法布里-珀罗微腔中的光学双稳性。这些微腔是通过在溅射的Si/SiO₂多层膜中控制形成圆形分层屈曲来制造的。双稳性的主要来源是镜面层中残余吸收引起的加热,这导致屈曲镜面的面外偏转。对于亚毫瓦的输入功率会出现滞后现象。
