摘要：

We demonstrated the optical bistable responses of the self-electro-optic effect device without applying any external bias. The function was realized by taking advantage of the significant electric-field dependence of both intensity and wavelength of an excitonic absorption peak, which is related to a resonance of electron levels in an asymmetric coupled quantum well structure. The successful result suggests that it is possible to create an all-optical bistable device with nonsegmented planar structure.
