Abstract
Free-space optics for digital optical computing or for electrooptic interconnections is considered. Results of an experiment are presented in which 512 symmetric self-electrooptic effect devices (S-SEEDs) were simultaneously operated. In this experiment, simultaneous continuous bistable operation was shown for the 32*16 array of S-SEEDs, as well as simultaneously optical latching of optical data in a random access manner onto the array.<>
