    Normalized emergent optical power of (a) the EW, and (b) the OW as a function of the incident optical power ratio. (c) and (d) are the emergent power ratios of the EW and OW as a function of the incident optical power ratio, respectively. I1 is the incident optical intensity of the OW, and I2 is the incident optical intensity of the EW.

(c) and (d) are the emergent power ratios of the EW and OW as a function of the incident optical power ratio, respectively. I1 is the incident optical intensity of the OW, and I2 is the incident optical intensity of the EW.
    Results of comparing the experiments. (a) The variation of the emergent EW by changing the incident OW power when the incident light is OW only. (b) The variation of the emergent OW by changing the incident EW power when the incident light is EW only.
