Abstract

Recently there has been interest in all-optical switching in AlGaAs based semiconductor waveguides1 utilizing the enhancement of the nonlinear refractive index coefficient around half the bandgap energy. Switching powers as low as 100 W have been demonstrated for a 2-cm-long half-beat length directional coupler with
