Abstract
An investigation of a chalcogenide glass thin-film Fabry-Perot cavity has been performed in picosecond time regime. Nonlinear behavior of th e structure derives from both nonlinear absorption of the material and changes in the resonance conditions of the cavity. The conditions to have bistable behavior have been established.
