Impedance-Detuned High-Contrast Vertical Cavity Semiconductor Switch

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We report an all-optical semiconductor gate optimized for high-contrast switching. Using a pump signal with an intensity of less than ~25 KW/cm2, we demonstrate a 30-dB contrast ratio for 10-GHz pulses with energy of 0.05 pJ.
