Abstract
An all-optical bistable resonator device composed of a 430 nm-thick liquid crystal (LC) layer embedded in two thin metallic films (MLM) is reported. It shows bistable response with a fast switching time measured to be 5 ms, which is much faster than the other all-optical LC devices. Since the MLM device operates free from electronic circuits, it is promising for two-dimensional optical data processing, random access optical memories or spatial light modulators.
