Single-Photon All-Optical Switching by Use of Coupled Microring Resonators

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We demonstrate exponential reduction of optical switching threshold in a Mach-Zehnder interferometer by using coupled microring resonators. With only few microring resonators, the switching power can reach attowatt level - ideal for single-photon all-optical devices.
