Abstract :
An optoelectronic RS flipflop emitting differential output has been proposed and demonstrated. It consists of two optical inverters. Optical interconnections are used to couple these inverters. Stable operation for the variation of bias voltage is demonstrated, which exhibits the possibility for 2-dimensional integration.
