摘要：

The optical bistability in a composite, composed of nonlinear metallic particles (spherical or cylindrical) with interfacial layers randomly embedded in a linear dielectric host, is investigated theoretically. It is shown that both interfacial property and the size of metallic particles can dramatically affect the optical bistable behavior, and the threshold value is more less in three dimension (3D) than in two dimension (2D) system under same physical condition.
