Miller, Jun-Fei Zheng, Nelson Li, Ta-Chung Wu, and Yu-Min Houng, "Novel optically-controlled optical switch based on intemate integration of surface-normal photodiode and waveguide electroabsorption modulators for wavelength conversion," LEOS 2003 Annual Meeting, October 26 – 30, 2003, Tucson, Arizona, Paper WU1

We demonstrate novel, wavelength-converting, optically-controlled optical switches that intimately integrated surface-normal photodiodes and waveguide electroabsorption modulators on an InP substrate, with proof-of-principle switching in GHz range with extinction ratios >10dB
