【 摘 要 】

The results of studies of broadband light transmission through a fiber loopand a double loop under the effect of nonlinear refractive index arepresented in this paper. Fiber loop and double loop transmission/reflectionvs. a coupler splitting ratio at various powers of the light with a spectralwidth of approximately 35 nm are studied and high efficient nonlinear lightswitching is demonstrated. It is shown that a double loop formed byconsecutive connecting 2 fiber loops allows us to exclude the strongspectral dependence of light transmission/reflection and to distribute inputlight equally between them. Such all-fiber devices can find a realapplication in broadband systems of optical communication and dataprocessing.
