| Abstract: | We propose a new nonlinear all-optical switching device by using the spatial solitons collision. This is 1 × N switching device controlled by two control beams. The numerical results show that this device could really function as a 1 × N all-optical switching device. This device is a potential key component in the application of optical signal processing and optical computing systems. |
