摘要：
We present an all-optical polarization switching of an asymmetric Fabry-Perot etalon containing a nonlinear Kerr medium in reflection type. Reflectance of a signal wave breaks up into two orthogonal polarization components as a result of photoinduced birefringent effects and shows distinct features of intensity stability and a high extinction ratio in polarization switching-modulation and memory operations.
