Abstract :
A new configuration for a loop memory using multistable nonlinear oscillation modes was proposed. The basic functions of the proposed loop memory have been confirmed with experimental demonstration of ´write´ and ´erase´ using optical pulse sequences in an electro-optical hybrid nonlinear ring resonator.
