Room-Temperature Thermal Optical Bistability in Thin-Film Interference Filters and Dye-Filled Etalons

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Passive optical bistability in semiconductors was first seen in an interference filter with an intermediate layer of ZnS one-wavelength thick, and implied switch-on time of 200 μs.1 Thin-film interference filters may be potential practical bistable devices due to their room-temperature operation, extreme thinness, ease of production, and low-power operation.
