Abstract:
We report a 27:l switching contrast ratio with 2.5 mW of power in an asymmetric Fabry-
Perot Ctalon. The modulation is achieved by optical saturation of the excitonic
absorption profile of a 95 A GaAs/AlGaAs multiple quantum well structure grown on a
high-reflectivity dielectric stack mirror.
