22 December 1989All-Optical Bistability In Nematic Liquid Crystals At Microwatt Power Levels
The temporal response and stability of all-optical switches at power levels down to 14µW are studied; cell design and optimisation are also considered for extension of this work to infrared wavelengths with experimental results presented for 1.3 μm.
