Abstract

The minimum power required for a nonlinear phase shift of π/2, and the maximum propagation distance are evaluated for the semiconductors GaAs and InSb in four guided wave geometries: surface plasmons at the interface between two semi-infinite media and guided by a thin metal film, and single and multilayer thin-film optical waveguides. Optimum configurations compatible with guided wave technology are identified.
