Abstract

A novel configuration of semiconductor all-optical switch based on Fabry-Perot cavity is proposed. The principle and structure of this kind of all-optical switch are presented. We also analyze the performance of the all-optical switch. The wavelength selectivity of the all-optical switch changed with the power of the control light is given. We discuss its viable application in the future optical switching.
