摘要
We have studied the propagation of coherent light through a passive optical power limiter (OPL) consisting of two alternating layers with different linear and nonlinear refractive indices. We have obtained general formulas for the transmittance and the optical limiting output power. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
