Abstract
The progress in development of second-order nonlinear optical materials along with the recent recognition of the intrinsic limitations of third- order non-linear optical devices, [1] has incited intrest in applying second-order nonlinear optical materials to all-optical devices. Several schemes have already been proposed to achieve transistorlike switches based on second-harmonic generation (SHG) [2-5].
