摘要：

A p-i-n photodiode with GaAs/AlAs asymmetric coupled quantum well absorption layers at room temperature exhibited an optical bistable response for a focused optical beam with no external electrical element. From dependence of the bistable responses on a position of the light beam, it is concluded that lateral resistance of the p-AlGaAs layer plays an important role, and thus the result is interpreted in terms of a response of a nonbiased self-electro-optic effect device with an internal feedback element.
