In this work, we present an extensive theoretical analysis of nonlinear optical waveguide sensor. The waveguide under consideration consists of a thin dielectrica film surrounded by a self-focused nonlinear cladding and a linear substrate. The nonlinearity of the cladding is considered to be of Kerr-type. Both cases, when the effective refractive index is greater and when it is smaller than the index of the guiding layer, are discussed. The sensitivity of the effective refractive index to any change in the cladding index in evanescent optical waveguide sensor is derived for TM modes. Closed form analytical expressions and normalized charts are given to provide the conditions required for the sensor to exhibit its maximum sensitivity. The results are compared with those of the well-known linear evanescent waveguide sensors.

In this paper, the optical bistability in finite size one-dimensional coupled resonator nonlinear optical waveguide has been investigated. To calculate the bistable switching manner in five proposed structures, we use the linear and nonlinear transfer matrices with fixed point iteration method. Our results show that the threshold and domain of bistable switching answer depend on the defect region in one-dimensional coupled resonator nonlinear optical waveguides. Also, the best answer of switch takes place at the left and right edges of the photonic band gap of the structures depending on the defect regions. In fact, due to the presence of the photonic band gap in the slow wave system, the density of states of the electromagnetic fields is large at the photonic band edge and photonic defect modes and thus the group velocity is small, and the local field is enhanced. All these factors contribute to a significant decrease in the threshold of optical bistable switching devices.
