Abstract
Recently, a Fabry-Perot resonator containing an electrooptic element driven by the transmitted light has been shown to exhibit hysteresis and bistability1. Such a device is capable of functioning as an optical switch, pulse shaper, and optical limiter. In this paper we demonstrate that such a device can be built in an integrated optics format to produce a compact, low energy optical switching element.
