Abstract
There has recently been increasing interest in bistable optical devices because of their potential for all-optical signal processing in optical computing systems and optical transmission networks(1), (2). Nonlinear Fabry-Perot étalons whose steady-state properties have been studied extensively are one candidate for such applications. Relatively little work, however, has been done on their operating characteristics and transient behavior(3).
