An all-optical spatial switch in Bacteriorhodopsin

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Bacteriorhodopsin (bR) is a protein found in the purple membrane of the bacteria Halobacterium salinarium and has been widely exploited in this decade[1]. The origin of the third order optical nonlinearity in bR [2] in the cw optical regime is due to a photon driven chemical transformation which triggers a serie of photochromic modifications.
