Bistable Behaviour of Light Waves in a Graded-Index Planar Waveguide with Nonlinear Substrate
Abstract
Bistability of a planar guiding structure with a nonlinear refractive index of the upper substrate and a lower linear substrate with a nonabrupt boundary is studied. The central guiding medium is assumed to be linear.
