Optical bistability on reflection with an InSb étalon controlled by a guided wave

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We report experimental results on optical bistability using an InSb étalon gold coated on one face, at 80 K and 5.59-μm wavelength. The bistability, observed on reflection, was controlled by a beam coupled through the edge of the étalon. The geometry lends itself to the possibility of addressing a large number of individual spots, all of which are controlled by the same guided beam.
