Abstract(in English) We proposed all-optical flip-flop based on an semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) with two feedback loops. This device is operated between two polarization state signals at one wavelength. The circuit consists of an SOA, a polarization combiner, a polarization splitter, two directional couplers and two phase shifters. The flip-flop operation can be performed without using continuous light sources. In this report, we theoretically analyzed the flip-flop performance. We show that the flip-flop circuit with a feedback-loop length of 15mm can be operated at switching time of around 3ns by 1ns set/reset pulse.
