摘要：

The analysis of a nonlinear directional coupler consisted of an optical fiber and a nematic liquid crystalline waveguide is presented. The nonlinear effect caused by an optically-induced reorientational effect in nematics leads to the bistable behavior, The theoretical model is compared with experimental results.
