Keywords:all-optical switch, quasi-phase matching, periodically poled lithium niobate

We analyze characteristics of all-optical gate switches using the cascade of second harmonic generation and difference frequency mixing in quasi-phase-matched lithium niobate. Our numerical calculations consider not only the waveforms of the initial gate and data pulses but also the optical noises on them.
