On-Chip All-Optical Switching and Memory by Silicon Photonic Crystal Nanocavities

Figure 7

All-optical switching for samples with and without ion-implantation. (a) NOT-type switching. (b) AND-type switching. (c) Signal transmission at the time when the control pulses enters the cavity. The ON/OFF contrast of the signal is shown in relation to the input control pulse energy. The circles are the minimal transmission for the nonimplanted sample, and the squares are for the implanted sample.
