Static and Dynamic Characteristics of Electrooptic Bistable Devices

Masakatsu Okada

Abstract

Comprehensive descriptions are given of the static and dynamic behaviors of electrooptic bistable devices. The static behaviors include the characteristics of optical output versus input and optical output versus phase retardation, and several modifications of operational characteristics. The transient and unstable responses, including the switching response, periodic self-pulsation, optical monostable pulse generation and chaotic behavior, are also discussed for electrooptic bistable devices with different feedback configurations.
