D. A. B. Miller "Analog differential self-linearized quantum-well
self-electro-optic-effect modulator" Optics Letters, 18, 974-976 (1993). The
authors describe an analog self-electro-optic-effect device that gives a difference
between two optical output powers that is linearly proportional to electrical or optical
drive, permitting bipolar processing in novel image-processing arrays. The device is able
to operate over a range of more than four orders of magnitude optical power, from 50 nW to
2.5 mW, corresponding to uniform incident intensities as low as 3.3 mW/cm/sup 2/
