Abstract The optical bistability caused by the coupling between modes of the parallel-plate waveguide and a nonlinear hemicylindrical crystal is studied using theoretical and numerical analysis. In such a system a waveguide channel is parallelly coupled to whispering gallery modes of a hemicylindrical microresonator ensuring bistable behaviour at input intensities of the order of a few MW/cm2. The characteristic minimum switching time of the system (around 30 ps) can be controlled by varying the thickness of the metal layer which couples the waveguide and whispering gallery modes. This is conditioned by the change of the quality Q-factor, as well as the coupling coefficient of the resonator. The main advantages of the system are fabrication simplicity, small sizes of the order of 3 µm and the possibility of adjusting the processes by making use of the electro-optical effect.

A novel measurement method of parallel-plate waveguide (PPW) system is introduced to detect the characteristics of left-handed metamaterials (LHMs). A sample of LHM composed of triangular open-loop resonator plus wire structures is proposed and measured by using this PPW system. The measurement results are in good agreement with the simulation results. Furthermore, the parametric retrieval algorithm, the calculated negative phase shift and the simulated subwavelength imaging result are given to validate the authenticity of PPW measurement system, which effectively demonstrates the measured transmission passband is indeed a left-handed passband.
