Abstract

The principle of operation of a new all-optical guided-wave thresholding device, based on the nonlinear waves guided by integrated optics structures containing both birefringent crystals and isotropic nonlinear media, is reported. The device would involve a properly tailored ultrathin film configuration, and the threshold power could be tuned through the crystal optical axis orientation relative to the propagation direction.
