We propose a new and potentially integrable scheme for the realization of an all-optical binary full adder employing two XOR gates, two AND gates, and one OR gate. The XOR gate is realized using a Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) based on a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA). The AND and OR gates are based on the nonlinear properties of a semiconductor optical amplifier. The proposed scheme is driven by two input data streams and a carry bit from the previous less-significant bit order position. In our proposed design, we achieve extinction ratios for Sum and Carry output signals of 10 dB and 12 dB respectively. Successful operation of the system is demonstrated at 10 Gb/s with return-to-zero modulated signals.

We made the logic that can transmit the service data and clock of interest by using the optical signal and demodulate the original signal at the receiving end. Because We can interface the all communications equipment to which We intended to send the signal. We can modulate the dock and clocked data using optical signal and then transmit the original optical signal to the receiving end, finally, arbitrarily control the traffic between ports.

By using gain saturation of semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs), an all-optical AND gate at 10 Gb/s has been successfully demonstrated. Firstly, Boolean (equation omitted) has been obtained using the first SOA with signal B and clock injection. Then, the all-optical AND gate is achieved using the second SOA with signals A and (equation omitted) injection.

By using 2 signals without additional input signal, an all-optical binary half adder at 10 Gbps is demonstrated. The half adder operates in single mechanism, which is XGM. By achieving this experiment, we also explored the possibilities for the enhanced complex logic operation and higher chances for multiple logic integration.

This paper considers the problem of routing connections in a optical multi tree networks using WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing), where each connection between a pair of nodes in the network is assigned a path through the network and a wavelength on that path, so that connections whose paths share a common link in the network are assigned different wavelengths. The problem of optimal coloring of the paths on the optical multi-networks is NP-hard[1], but if that is the coloring of all paths, then there exists efficient polynomial time algorithm. In this paper, using a "divide & conquer" method, we give efficient algorithm to assign wavelengths to all the paths of a tree network based on the theory of [7]. Here, our time complexity is 0(n4log n).

By using an XPM (Cross Phase Modulation) wavelength converter, an all-optical AND gate, which is one of six fundamental logic gates, has been demonstrated. The wavelengths for probe and pump signals are 1553.8 and 1545 nm, respectively. First, characteristics of the XPM wavelength converter have been studied. When both probe and pump signals are driven by high power, the output power of the XPM wavelength is high. Based on this fact and the experiment, the all-optical AND gate has been porved. Probe and pump signals are transformed to pulse signals by using Mach-Zehnder modulator, which is induced by a pulse generator. Square pulse signals that are similar to the format of NRZ signals have been generated. By coupling two pulse signals into the XPM wavelength converter, AND characteristics in substantiated.

In this paper, the effects of filter parameters on a supercontinuum-based all-optical thresholder are experimentally investigated. By tuning the filter parameters, the power transfer function and power transmission function are tailored. The experimental results show that a thresholder with short center wavelength has a better power function, and the slope in the middle level of the thresholder increases with increasing bandwidth. Through tuning the filter parameters, the thresholder can achieve a steplike power transfer function for optical thresholding, and a steplike power transmission function for optical self-switching. This makes the supercontinuum-based thresholder more flexible, and allows customization of performance to meet different demands in various applications.

Using the Selective Area Growth (SAG) technology of Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition (MOCVD), we successfully integrated an active device and passive devices on the same substrate. In other words, we integrated a Semiconductor Optical Amplifier (SOA) as an active device and an S-bend waveguide and a Multi Mode Interference (MMI) waveguide as passive devices. The SOA is successfully integrated with passive devices on the same substrate. The Cross-Gain Modulation (XGM) characteristic of the integrated SOA and the loss of an MMI and an S-bend waveguide were measured. Measured XGM characteristics of the SOA showed an extinction ratio of 8.82 dB. The total loss of the MMI and S-bend waveguide was 18 dB.

광을 기반으로 한 논리 연산은 전자 소자의 속도 한계 및 연산 용량의 한계를 극복할 대안으로 많은 관심을 끌고 있다. 초고속 전광 논리 연산의 구현은 대부분 물질의 비선형성을 이용하며 특히 광섬유의 비선형 Ken 효과를 이용한 Sagnac 간섭계의 형태를 이용한 논리 연산이 주로 연구되어 왔다$^{(1)}$ . 그러나 광섬유의 비선형성을 이용하기 위해서는 충분히 큰 광 강도가 필요하며 회로 구성에 있어서도 크기가 크다는 단점이 있다. 최근에는 반도체 광증폭기의 비선형 이득 포화 현상을 이용한 TOAD 등이 발표되어 상대적으로 크기도 감소하고 사용되는 광 강도 역시 감소시킬 수 있었다$^{(2)}$ . 간섭계를 이용한 광논리의 구현은 Sagnac 간섭계 뿐만 아니라 비선형 특성을 갖는 도파로로 구성된 Mach-Zehnder 간섭계, Michelson 간섭계 등도 이용이 가능하다.
