Abstract

A new all-optical switch based on the local nonlinear metal-insulator-metal (MIM) plasmonic Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) waveguides was proposed. We used the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method to simulate the proposed structure. The numerical show that the proposed local nonlinear MIM plasmonic MZI waveguide structure could really function as an all-optical switch.
