内容简介

The content of this book is divided into 10 chapters. Chapter 1 introduces the importance, classification and parameter of optical switch, and points out the research direction of the all-optical switch; Chapter 2 gives the basic knowledge of nonlinear optical physics and materials for all- optical switches; Chapter 3 introduces the electricity-controUed optical switches, which are available in the market; Chapter 4 studies the optical bistable device (OBD) including the pure optical OBD and the electro-optical hybrid OBD, in addition the instability of OBD; Chapter 5 discusses the nonlinear interferometer all-optical switches as a kind of space-type AOSs; Chapter 6 introduces the nonlinear fiber grating AOS, which is one of intensity-type AOSs; Chapter 7 shows the nanoscale AOS including the nanoscale waveguide AOS, the photon crystal AOS and the surface plasmonic AOS; Chapter 8 discusses the optical flip- flop, a time-type AOS, and the wavelength convertor, a wavelength-type AOS; Chapter 9 talks about optical-limiting optical switches, which is a transmittance switch used for preventing laser injure to eyes. Finally, Chapter 10 discusses the applications of AOSs in all-optical communication networks.
