Three-terminal noninverting optoelectronic logic device

A novel noninverting optoelectronic logic device using a GaAs/AlGaAs multiple-quantum-well modulator is demonstrated that combines electronic nonlinearity with optical input and output and is bistable. The device is bistable but displays hard limiting and an optical gain of 12.
