Practical Feasibility

All optical tri-state frequency encoded logic gates NOT and NAND are proposed and numerically investigated using TOAD based interferometric switch for the first time to the best of our knowledge. The optical power spectrum, extinction ratio, contrast ration, and amplified spontaneous noise are calculated to analyze and confirm practical feasibility of the gates. The proposed device works for low switching energy and has high contrast and extinction ratio as indicated in this work.

AbstractAlthough photonics presents the fastest and most energy-efficient method of data transfer, magnetism still offers the cheapest and most natural way to store data. The ultrafast and energy-efficient optical control of magnetism is presently a missing technological link that prevents us from reaching the next evolution in information processing. The discovery of all-optical magnetization reversal in GdFeCo with the help of 100 fs laser pulses has further aroused intense interest in this compelling problem. Although the applicability of this approach to high-speed data processing depends vitally on the maximum repetition rate of the switching, the latter remains virtually unknown. Here we experimentally unveil the ultimate frequency of repetitive all-optical magnetization reversal through time-resolved studies of the dual-shot magnetization dynamics in Gd27Fe63.87Co9.13. Varying the intensities of the shots and the shot-to-shot separation, we reveal the conditions for ultrafast writing and the fastest possible restoration of magnetic bits. It is shown that although magnetic writing launched by the first shot is completed after 100 ps, a reliable rewriting of the bit by the second shot requires separating the shots by at least 300 ps. Using two shots partially overlapping in space and minimally separated by 300 ps, we demonstrate an approach for GHz magnetic writing that can be scaled down to sizes below the diffraction limit.

This paper focuses on photogenerated carrier nonlinearities in InGaAs/InAlAs quantum wells (QWs) that use low optical power, display a relatively fast recovery time (280 ps down to 35 ps), and excellent optical properties in terms of the sharpness of the absorption edge. A guided-wave, all-optical switching device is demonstrated as an application, at a wavelength which is of interest to telecommunication systems (1.55 μm) and requires low control energy (<0.3 pJ/pulse). A key issue here is that the controlled introduction of defects in the QW heterostructures allows the time response to be fastened significantly without being detrimental to the performance of the device in terms of on-off contrast and switching energy. The preparation procedure is compatible with metalorganic-based growth techniques widespread in optoelectronics at 1.55 μm.

AbstractThe tungsten diselenide (WSe2) has attracted considerable interest owing to their versatile applications, such as p-n junctions, transistors, fiber lasers, spintronics, and conversion of solar energy into electricity. We demonstrate all-optical tuning of light in WSe2-coated microfiber (MF) using WSe2’s broad absorption bandwidth and thermo-optic effect. The transmitted optical power (TOP) can be tuned using external incidence pump lasers (405, 532, and 660 nm). The sensitivity under 405-nm pump light excitation is 0.30 dB/mW. A rise/fall time of ~ 15.3/16.9 ms is achieved under 532-nm pump light excitation. Theoretical simulations are performed to investigate the tuning mechanism of TOP. The advantages of this device are easy fabrication, all-optical control, high sensitivity, and fast response. The proposed all-optical tunable device has potential applications in all-optical circuitry, all-optical modulator, and multi-dimensionally tunable optical devices, etc.

AbstractA novel all optical measurement scheme is proposed to measure wideband microwave frequencies up to 30 GHz. The proposed method is based on a four-wave mixing (FWM) approach in a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) of both even order side-bands generated by an unknown microwave frequency modulating an optical carrier. The optical power of a generated FWM signal depends on frequency spacing between extracted side-bands. A mathematical relation is established between FWM power and frequency of an unknown signal. A calibration curve is drawn based on the mathematical relation which predicts the unknown frequency from power withdrawn after FWM.
