Two-dimensional simulations utilizing the Optical bistablity finite-difference time-domain algorithm are used to demonstrate an apparent optical bistability and significant FDTD algorithm switching mechanisms (in enabled-low condition: 肀 (ON/OFF) =21.9 and in enabled-high condition: 肀 (ON/OFF) =24.9) of the signal light arisen by altering the pump-light intensity. The proposed all-optical switching demonstrates femtosecond-scale feedback time (90 fs) and then ultra-fast switching can be achieved. The offered all-optical switch may recognize potential significant applications in integrated optical circuits.
