Abstract :
The results presented here give a demonstration of the potential of all-optical switching using X2 nonlinearities. The switching irradiance scales as [X2]-2 so that new organic crystals with X2 more than ten times that of KTP will significantly reduce switching irradiances. In addition, waveguide geometries will lead to further reductions in the switching energy
