FIELD: optical instrument engineering. SUBSTANCE: optical radiation, in particular, in the form of solutions or pulses similar to them at frequencies w and 2w are applied to the input of tunnel- coupled light pipes. Optical radiations are changed over by variation of the amplitude or phase of radiation at least of one frequency, the wave amplitudes at the input are bound with a relation. EFFECT: enhanced speed of change-over and efficiency of control of optical radiation. 20 cl, 21 dwg
