A new optical switch is presented using InP/SOI hybrid photonic crystal nanocavity. Switching contrast of 11 dB with 20 mW peak power and recovery time of 14 ps are measured. NRZ wavelength conversion and power limiter are demonstrated at 10 Gb/s through system experiments with 6 and 1 mW peak power respectively.
