Abstract
The characteristics of high power density created by moderate powers in small cross-sectional areas and diffractionless propagation over long interaction lengths make waveguides attractive for implementing efficient nonlinear optical devices. Integrated optical devices can be used in an all-optical mode by introducing waveguide media with intensity dependent refractive indices.
