FABRICATION, INVESTIGATION AND OPTIMIZATION OF GALLIUM-ARSENIDE OPTICAL BISTABLE DEVICES AND LOGIC GATES.

The fundamental components for processing all-optically represented data, namely optical switches and logic gates are investigated. Improved techniques for fabricating nonlinear Fabry-Perot etalons containing GaAs have brought a proliferation of GaAs optical bistable devices. These devices show sign...
