A scheme to realize all-optical Boolean logic functions, XOR, AND and NAND operations using binary phase shift keyed (BPSK) signal based on quantum-dot semiconductor optical amplifiers (QD-SOA) has been designed and studied. Nonlinear dynamics including carrier heating and spectral hole-burning are taken into account together with the rate equations. We demonstrate XOR, AND and NAND operations at 250Gb/s using a pair of QD-SOA Mach-Zehnder interferometers. Results show that this scheme is suitable for high speed all-optical Boolean logic operations and can improve the output quality comparing with the system using on-off-keyed (OOK) signal.

In this paper, we report our recent studies on developing nonlinear techniques based on a single SOA for all-optical signal processing at high-speed, with a focus on simple configurations employing commercial SOAs for several key all-optical network applications. Our researches are based on nonlinear polarization rotation (NPR), four-wave mixing (FWM) and cross-phase modulation (XPM) effects in a single SOA. We propose and demonstrate applications of the nonlinear techniques in all-optical logic gates, multi-function format coversion, tunable Lyot birefringent filter and multi-channel optical time division multiplexed (OTDM) demultiplexing.

Quantum well semiconductor structures allow small, fast, efficient optoelectronic devices such as optical modulators and switches. These are capable of logic themselves and have good potential for integration with electronic integrated circuits for parallel high speed interconnections. Devices can be made both in waveguides and two-dimensional parallel arrays. Working arrays of optical logic and memory devices have been demonstrated, to sizes as large as 2 048 elements, all externally accessible in parallel with free-space optics. This article gives an overview of the physics underlying the operation of such devices, and describes the principles of several of the device types, including self-electrooptic effect devices (SEEDs).

Abstract In this digital era, all-optical logic gates (OLGs) proved its effectiveness in execution of high-speed computations. A unique construction of an all-optical OR, NOR, NAND gates based on the notion of power combiner employing metal–insulator–metal (MIM) waveguide in the Y-shape in a minimal imprint of 6.2 µm × 3 µm is presented and the structure is evaluated by finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) technique. The insertion loss (IL) and extinction-ratio (ER) for proposed model are 6 dB and 27.76 dB for NAND gate, 2 dB and 20.35 dB for NOR gate and 6 dB and 24.10 dB respectively. The simplified model is used in the construction of complex circuits to achieve greater efficiency, which contributes to the emergence of a new technique for designing plasmonic integrated circuits.

The scheme to realize high speed (~250Gb/s) all-optical Boolean logic gates using semiconductor optica amplifiers with quantum-dot (QD-SOA) is introduced and analyzed in this review. Numerical simulation method was presented by solving the rate equation and taking into account nonlinear dynamics including carrier heating and spectral hole-burning. Binary phase shift keyed (BPSK) signal and on-off keyed signal are used to generate high speed all-optical logic gates. The applications based on all-optical logic gates such as, all-optical latches, pseudo random bit sequence (PRBS) generation and all-optical encryption, are also discussed in this review. Results show that the scheme based on QD-SOA is a promising method for the realization of high speed all-optical communication system in the future.
