Optical bistability can be applied to the optical logic. optical signal processing and optical memory. We have measured the optical bistability of DFB-SOA and demonstrated all-optical OR logic gate using switching characteristics of DFB-SOA.

We demonstrate the droplet bistability in a microchannel which has two symmetric necks that operate as capillary valves. It is shown that there are certain flow conditions, determined by droplet velocity and droplet size, to achieve bistability. Droplet bistabililty allows simple but precise control of droplet at a bifurcation channel. Therefore, by an appropriate channel design to induce droplet bistability, we can distribute droplets at a junction passively in the manner of perfect alternation and perfect switching in the choice of the outlets.

본 논문에서는 자기 전광 효과를 이용하여 광쌍안정을 갖는 새로운 형태의 도파로형 광변조기의 동작 특성에 관하여 논하였다. 제작된 소자는 전계의 세기에 따른 굴절률의 변화를 이용하는 위상 변조형 광변조기와 전기적 쌍안정성을 갖는 수광 소자가 병렬로 연결된 구조로 되어 있다. 광도파로층과 수광 소자의 흡수층은 GaAs/AlGaAs 다중 양자 우물층을 사용하였다. 수광 소자에 흡수되는 광의 세기에 따라 변하는 다이오드 전압은 도파로형 광변조기를 통과하는 광의 세기를 조절하며 SEED의 전기적 쌍안정을 이용하여 도파로형 광변조기의 광쌍안정을 얻을 수 있었다. 본 논문에서 제안된 광변조기는 기존의 도파로형 광변조기에 비해 낮은 입력광에서도 광안쌍정을 갖는 장점을 갖는다.

We report, for the first time to our knowledge, observation of polarization bistability from 1.55-${\mu}m$ wavelength single-mode VCSELs of a conventional cylinder-shape under control of their driving current, and demonstration of all-optical flip-flop (AOFF) operations based on the bistability with optical set and reset pulse injection at a 50 MHz switching frequency. The injection pulse energy was less than 14 fJ. The average on-off contrast ratio of the flip-flopped signals was about 7 dB. These properties of the VCSELs will be potentially useful for future high-speed all-optical signal processing applications.

Low-threshold optical bistability is essential for practical nonlinear optical applications. Many bistable optical devices based on high-quality-factor resonators have been proposed to reduce the threshold intensity. However, demonstrating high-quality-factor resonance requires complex fabrication techniques. In this work, we numerically demonstrate optical bistability with bound states in the continuum in a simple one-dimensional Si photonic crystal. The designed structure supports bound states in the continuum, producing an ultrahigh quality factor without tough fabrication conditions. The threshold intensity of the designed device is 150 MW/cm² at the optical communication wavelength. This scheme may lead to a new class of nonlinear photonics.

In the paper, we investigated the Bragg reflective cholesteric display based on polymer stabilization. We studied the bistability in the polymer stabilized cholesteric texture (PSCT) films and baused on which we achieved wider viewing angle though imperfect planar texture.

We report a new all-optical flip-flop (AOFF) with a quite simple structure, using optical beating in an injection-locked Fabry-Perot laser diode (FP-LD) with optical bistability. While conventional AOFF methods using an injection-locked FP-LD require additional devices such as secondary FP-LDs or polarization controllers for reset operation, the proposed method can be implemented using only a single commercially available FP-LD with set and reset signals. The optical beating induces intensity fluctuations inside the FP-LD, and releases the locking state to the reset state. Even though we demonstrated the AOFF at 100 Mbit/s, we expect that its operation rate could extend to 10 Gbit/s, according to the limit of the FP-LD's frequency response.

Studies of Co(N-N)(3,6-DBSQ)(3,6-DBCat)(N-N=4,7-dimethyl-1 ,10-phenanthroline, 5-chloro-1,10-phenanthroline; DBSQ=di-tert-butylsemiquinonato; DBCat=di-tert-butylcatecholato) have been carried out on the bistability by intramolecular cobalt-quinone electron transfer in solid state. The title complexes dominantly exist as $Co^{III}$(N-N)(3,6-DBSQ)(3,6-DBCat) at room temperature and display a significant bistability on temperature variation. Subtle change in optical spectra and magnetic properties is observed when diimine ligands are changed.
