▲ [20a-211B-8] Multistability in directional coupler with negative index material channel

〇(PC)Nithyanandan Kanagaraj1,2 (1.Univ. Grenoble Alpes, 2.Univ. de Bourgogne)

Keywords:Nonlinear Optics

We observe optical mulistability in opposite directly coupler (ODC) with negative index material channel. The emergence of multiple stable states is a result of combined action of nonlinear saturation and opposite directionality of phase velocity and energy flow in the ODC.
