Abstract

In this treatment, we use the physical properties of the bound exciton optical nonlinearity in CdS¹ to analyze the local bistable condition in the material due to induced absorption.^2,3 The coupled Maxwell's equations in the slowly varying envelope and phase approximation (SVEA) for the forward propagating field $E_{F}^{+}$ and the backward propagating field $E_{B}^{+}$ in steady state,
