We describe a novel, fully-packaged, hybrid-integrated all-optical flip-flop memory element. Static state contrast ratios of 10dB and 13dB are demonstrated and the flip-flop can have its state changed dynamically every 32ns with the introduction of state-setting pulses (pulse widths <150ps).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
