Abstract
We report here the first experimental evidence of nonlinear beam displacement in a strip-loaded GaAs/AlGaAs multi-quantum-well (MQW) waveguide with an asymmetric nonlinear cladding. An intensity-dependent spatial displacement of ~ 2μim was observed for the guided mode at a wavelength of 1.55μm.
