Abstract

PnpN double-heterojunction optical thyristor (DHOT)1 has gained great attentions lately for its potential applications in optical digital systems with various advantages such as fast response, low switching energy, low power consumption, high contrast ratio, and possibility of 2-D integration. Also, there have been many reports showing various applications of DHOT, such as programmable logic array in optical parallel interconnection, optical thresholder in neural networks, and dynamic memories in optical computer.
