Abstract

A GaAlAs Fabry-Perot device has been grown which displays thermally stable switching with a threshold of 1 mW and a contrast ratio of 10:1. With the help of theoretical analysis and experimentation we probe the issues which are relevant to using this class of device in a practical system context.
