Hexagonal patterns in optical bistability [PDF]
The mean-field model of optical bistability in a ring cavity is extended to include diffraction in two transverse dimensions. Nonlinear analysis in the neighborhood of the instability of the homogeneous solution indicates the formation of stable hexagonal patterns, and this is confirmed by numerical simulation, with reasonable quantitative agreement ...

We showed recently [1] that a single soliton solution of the highly-nonlinear Schrödinger equation becomes multi-stable for a certain class of nonlinearities. This implies that more than one amplitude profile and propagation constant of a single soliton may exist for the same total power carried by the soliton.

Optical Bistability in Active Devices [PDF]
Optical bistability in both FP and DFB type LDs is an interesting subject because they have optical gain. Optical gain results in advantages such as low switching optical power, high ON-OFF ratio, and large fan-out. Bistable LDs can also operate faster than one nanosecond.

Abstract Optical bistability due to biexcitons in CuCl is discussed with respect to its physical origin. We show that switching times and switching intensities are functions of the photon energy of the exciting light beam.

Intrinsic Optical Bistability in a Cavity
Physical Review A, 1990The nonlinear oscillator model including propagation has an interesting optical bistable characteristic behavior, which has been studied by Goldstone and Garmire1 and, extensively, by Haus et al2. The authors show that this medium exhibits optical bistability without a cavity due to increased absorption.

We consider the problem of the wave propagation through a nonlinear medium. We derive a dynamic system that governs the behavior of standing (or solitary) waves. The form of this system alone suffices to understand the qualitative dependence of solutions of the original equation on the intensity of the incident wave.
