Advanced all-optical logic gates on a spectral bus.
We present experimental results on a new method for ultrafast all-optical logic, which utilizes four-wave mixing on polarization-modulated signals. The technique allows advanced operations such as exclusive-or and three-bit addition with carry bit. Furthermore, we show that on-the-fly error-correction encoding and decoding of a simple Hamming code is achieved when these gates are used on the bi...
متن کاملAll-Optical Logic Gates Based on Spatial-Soliton Interaction in Optical Communication Spectral Region
New designs of all-optical logic gates based on spatial-soliton interactions in optical communication spectral regions were proposed. The proposed structures are composed of local nonlinear Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) waveguide structures with multi-input ports and two nonlinear output ports. They can be used to design various all-optical logic gates. The nonlinear MZI waveguide structure...
متن کاملAll-Optical Logic Gates Based on Nonlinear Slot Waveguide Couplers
A novel design of all-optical logic gates based on nonlinear slot waveguide couplers is proposed. NOT, OR, and AND logic gates can be realized by simple single optical directional coupler configuration. Strong polarization dependencies of slot waveguides are effectively utilized for realizing polarization-independent optical directional couplers in linear regime and polarization-dependent all-o...

متن کاملA novel design for all-optical NAND/NOR/XOR gates based on nonlinear directional coupler
In this paper a novel all-optical logic NAND, NOR and XOR gate based on nonlinear directional coupler theory is demonstrated. We use the identical structure which contains three waveguides, for designing these gates; the only difference however, is the power of inputs light beam. In other words, while a beam with 4 W/μm in power considered as logical one, the output is NAND gate and if a beam w...
