Saturable Absorption by Vertically Inserted or Overlaid Monolayer Graphene in Optical Waveguide for All-Optical Switching Circuit

Optical saturable absorption through a monolayer graphene vertically inserted between fibers and overlaid on an ion-exchanged waveguide was measured for picosecond switching application. In our proposed switch, complete switching is performed by controlling the signal light amplitude with the config...
