Abstract

Theoretical studies on the existence of gap soliton in one-dimensional GaAs/AlGaAs nonlinear photonic crystal have been investigated. Propagation of gap solitons through these multilayered structures has been studies for different controlling intensities by solving Maxwell’s electromagnetic equations and using modified transfer matrix method. The study shows that gap solitons exist at high intensities and this property can be exploited in the design of an optical switch.
