Abstract

The effective phase modulation of cascaded Kerr-birefringent fibers have been modeled numerically. the results indicate increased modulation for multistage structures. These structures are used to design low-power interferometric switches showing noncyclic transfer characteristics and having stable ON/OFF states.
