Observation and Analysis of Critical Slowing Down in Nonlinear Visible Interference Filters

  • Conference paper
Optical Bistability III

Part of the book series: Springer Proceedings in Physics ((SPPHY,volume 8))

Abstract

We report the first observation of critical slowing down in interference filters. A theoretical model supports the experimental results which have fundamental implications on device design.
