Study of optical bistability in a fully optimized laser Fabry-Perot system

Abstract EN

The analytical study of optical bistability is concerned in a fully optimized laser Fabry-Perot system.

The related phenomena of switching dynamics and optimization procedure are also included.

From the steady state of optical bistability equation can plot the incident intensity versus the round trip phase shift (φ) for different values of dark mistuning or finesse (F= 1, 5, 20, 100).

In order to obtain different optical bistable loops.

The input-output characteristic for a nonlinear Fabry-Perot etalon of a different values of finesse (F) and using different initial detuning (φ0) are used in this research.

When the cavity finesse values increase, the switch-ON intensity increases for the same value of (φ0), because the bistable loop width increases with increasing the cavity finesse values.
