【Abstract】 Photonic crystal fibers (PCFs) have shown prospects in developing integrated optical devices with small size and low cost. This paper discusses various nonlinear effects in PCFs and their potential applications with the emphasis on the optical switches based on PCFs’ nonlinearities. A PCF optical switch scheme is presented based on the MachZehnder interferometer, and its feasibility and practicability are discussed.更多还原
