Abstract

We have proposed and experimentally demonstrated the all-optical composite logic gates with XOR, NOR, OR and NAND functions using SOA-MZI structures to make it possible to simultaneously perform various logical functions. The proposed scheme is robust and feasible for high speed all-optical logic operation with high ER.

병렬 SOA-MZI 구조들을 이용하여 XOR NOR, OR, 그리고 NAND 기능들을 가진 전광 복합 논리 게이트들을 제안하고 100Gbps에서 실험적으로 구현했다. 제안된 구조는 높은 소광 비를 가지며 복합적인 논리 기능들을 동시에 수행할 수 있다.
