Background and Objectives: Recently, photonic crystals have been considered as the basic structures for the realization of various optical devices for high speed optical communication. Methods: In this research, two dimensional photonic crystals are used for designing all optical logic gates. A photonic crystal structure with a triangular lattice is proposed for making NAND, XNOR, and OR optica...

How to reconfigure a logic gate for a variety of functions is an interesting topic. In this paper, a different method of designing logic gates are proposed. Initially, due to the training ability of the multilayer perceptron neural network, it was used to create a new type of logic and full adder gates. In this method, the perceptron network was trained and then tested. This network was 100% ac...

In advancing beyond the von Neumann architecture, nanomagnetic logic offers an attractive approach to in-memory computation by exploiting energy hierarchy of coupled nanomagnets. However, low-power operation is largely incompatible with deterministic logic, because temperature required for fast reduces coupling too much. This study overcomes that problem using local, selective plasmon-assisted ...
