Abstract(in English) Ultrafast all-optical memory operation was experimentally demonstrated using a 980-nm polarization-bistable vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL). At the optimum condition of the optical input power and the detuning frequency, 1-bit data signals were arbitrarily sampled and memorized from a 2^6-1 pseudorandom bit sequence return-to-zero signal at 20 Gb/s and a 6-bit non-return-to-zero signal at 40 Gb/s by AND gate and memory functionalities. Both memory operations had optical gain. All-optical flip-flop memories based on polarization bistable VCSELs may be useful for the ultrafast all-optical future networks.
