摘要：

We demonstrate all-optical switching at 1550 nm between two weakly coupled cores in a photonic crystal fiber for intensities up to 0.5 TW/cm(2). Spectrum analysis at higher intensities reveals that the output was dominated by continuum generation primarily towards shorter wavelengths. (c) 2006 Optical Society of America.
