Optimization and tolerancing of nonlinear Fabry Perot etalons for optical computing systems.

Since the discovery of optical bistability a considerable amount of research activity has been aimed toward the realization of general-purpose all-optical computers. The basic premise for most of this work is the widely held notion that a reliable optical switch can be fabricated from a piece of opt...
