Semiconductor ring lasers for all-optical signal processing

Since the late 1980s there has been a strong interest in exploiting optical bistablity for all-optical signal processing. In this scenario, a novel and promising building block is the semiconductor ring laser (SRL) that exhibits bistability between the counter-propagating cavity modes. This thesis r...
