All-Optical Quaternary Logic Based Information Processing: Challenges and Opportunities
Science and Technology is providing people all over the world with much better ways of communicating than ever before, and the winds of change have whipped up the de‐ sire to exchange more of everything from messages to movies. The field of computation and signal processing is growing day by day [1-7]. In last three to four decades, the phi‐ losophy, science and technical prospects enriched the...
متن کاملAll-optical logic circuits based on polarization properties of nondegenerate four-wave mixing
All-optical logic circuits based on the polarization properties of nondegenerate four-wave mixing are proposed. Schemes to perform multiple triple-product logic functions are discussed, and it is shown that higher-level Boolean operations that involve several bits can be implemented without resorting to the standard two-input gates. As a simple illustration of the idea, a circuit that performs ...
متن کاملFemtosecond all-optical devices for ultrafast communication and signal processing
Future bandwidth demand in optical communication and signal processing systems will soon exceed 100 Gb s−1 as is commonly forecasted from a throughput experience curve for communication systems. However, such systems cannot be realized without introducing ultrafast, all-optical devices, since existing optoelectronic and electronic devices and integrated circuits would not be able to function at...
متن کاملAll-Optical Logic Gates Using Semiconductor Optical-Amplifier-Based Devices and Their Applications
By using two main effects of cross-gain modulation and cross-phase modulation in semiconductor optical amplifier-based devices, many logic functions of logic AND, OR, XOR, NOR and XNOR are successfully demonstrated. Also, complex systems including all-optical half and full adders in a combination of multiple logic functions are successfully demonstrated. These functions will provide not only in...
متن کاملAll-optical Wavelength Conversion Based on Four-wave Mixing in Silicon Waveguides
All-optical wavelength conversion is investigated using fourwave mixing in silicon waveguides. The influences of nonlinear losses caused by two-photon absorption (TPA) and TPA-induced free-carrier absorption on the conversion efficiency and phase-matching condition are analyzed. The conversion bandwidth is tempted to enhance by optimizing the waveguide geometry and using the two-pump regime. An...
