We show how to enhance remarkably the modulation depth of all-optical switches almost to 100% by using two linear polarization beams： one beam is inclined at 45° with respect to the probing beam and serves as a pumping beam, and the other beam is perpendicular to the probing beam and used as an erasing beam. Furthermore, a maximum-to-minimum output intensity ratio of 2000：1 is achieved in experiment, which is very useful and important for optical storages and image displays.展开更多

To extend our work, the relationship between the delay time of the all-optical time-delay relay and parameters of a bR film is numerically studied. We show how the delay time changes with the product of concentration and thickness （PCT） of a bR film. Furthermore, the shortest and longest delay times are given for the relay of ＇switch off. The saturable delay time and maximum delaytime of ＇switch on＇ are also given. How the wavelengths （632.8, 568, 533 and 412 nm） and intensities of the illuminating light influence the delay time is also discussed. The simulation results are useful for optimizing the design of all-optical time-delay relays.展开更多

Because of the difference between the pumped wavelength and the output wavelength, various kinds of pumping ways, resonator structures and laser crystals, there are so many new kinds of optical thin films, including novel edge filters ,high reflection and an- tireflection coatings. The key problems in designing and coating are analyzed, and the researches carried out world- wide in this field are also given.展开更多
