Ultrafast all-optical modulation in GaAs photonic crystal cavities - art. no. 021111

[摘要]：We demonstrate all-optical modulation based on ultrafast optical carrier injection in a GaAs photonic crystal cavity using a degenerate pump-probe technique. The observations agree well with a coupled-mode model incorporating all relevant nonlinearities. The low switching energy (similar to 120 fJ), small energy absorption (similar to 10 fJ), fast on-off response (similar to 15 ps), limited only by carrier lifetime, and a minimum 10 dB modulation depth suggest practical all-optical switching applications at high repetition rates.
