All-photonic molecular half-adder.

چکیده
One molecule acts as both an AND and an XOR Boolean logic gate that share the same two photonic inputs. The molecule comprises a half-adder, adding two binary digits with only light as inputs and outputs, and consists of three covalently linked photochromic moieties, a spiropyran and two quinoline-derived dihydroindolizines. The AND function is based on the absorption properties of the molecule, whereas the XOR function is based on an off-on-off response of the fluorescence to the inputs that results from interchromophore excited-state quenching interactions. The half-adder is simple to operate and can be cycled many times.

All-Photonic Multifunctional Molecular Logic Device
Photochromes are photoswitchable, bistable chromophores which, like transistors, can implement binary logic operations. When several photochromes are combined in one molecule, interactions between them such as energy and electron transfer allow design of simple Boolean logic gates and more complex logic devices with all-photonic inputs and outputs. Selective isomerization of individual photochr...

Abstract: In this paper, we aim to design and propose a novel structure for all-opticalhalf subtractor based on the photonic crystal. The structure includes two optical switches,one power splitter, and one power combiner. The optical switches are made of theresonant rings which use the nonlinear rods for dropping operation. The footprint of thedesigned structure is about...
متن کاملMolecular beacon-based half-adder and half-subtractor.
This work demonstrates two DNA-based logic circuits that behave as a half-adder and a half-subtractor. A half-adder is composed of an AND gate and an XOR gate, whereas a half-subtractor consists of an INH gate and an XOR gate. The proposed designs are inspired by molecular beacons.
