Bidirectionally tunable all optical switch based on multiple nano structured res

Based on the second-order nonlinearity, we present a bidirectional tunable all-optical switch at C-band by introducing backward quasi-phase-matching technique in Mg-doped periodically poled lithium niobate (MgO:PPLN) waveguide with a nano-structure called multiple resonators. Two injecting forward lights and one backward propagating light interact with difference frequency generations. The transmission of forward signal and backward idler light can be modulated simultaneously with the variation
