In this paper we will propose and design an all optical amplitude shift keying demodulator using a photonic crystal based nonlinear ring resonator. The proposed structure will be designed such that it can generate digital 0 and 1 based on the amplitude of the input signal. The working mechanism is based on controlling the optical behavior of the resonant ring using optical intensity. The proposed structure was simulated using plane wave expansion and finite difference time domain methods. The simulation results show that the rise and fall times for the proposed structure are 0.5 and 0.1 ps, respectively.

AbstractIn this paper we will propose and design an all optical phase shift keying (PSK) demodulator using photonic crystal based coupled waveguides. The proposed structure should be designed such that it can generate digital 0 and 1 based on the phase of the input signal. The working mechanism is based on constructive and destructive of optical beams. The proposed structure was simulated using plane wave expansion and finite difference time domain methods. The simulation results show that the rise and fall times for the proposed structure are about 1.2 ps and 0.2 ps, respectively.

AbstractAll optical majority gate is an optical logic structure with three input and one output ports. In this paper we designed an optical majority gate using a nonlinear resonant cavity based on photonic crystals. Plane wave expansion and finite difference time domain methods were used for calculating the band structure diagram and optical behavior of the optical majority gate, respectively. The proposed structure is ON, when two or three input ports are ON. The maximum time delay of our majority gate is about 5 ps.

Abstract In this paper a high speed optical half adder is designed. The working mechanism of the proposed structure is based on optical threshold switching. Three nonlinear ring resonators are used for this purpose. These nonlinear ring resonators are created by adding doped glass based rods inside the resonant rings. The proposed structure works with optical waves with central wavelength and optical intensity equal to 1550 nm and 1 W/μm2 respectively. The rise time is 2 ps.

Abstract In this study, we are going to design all optical 1-bit comparator by combining wave interference and threshold switching methods. The final structure composed of two nonlinear ring resonators and seven waveguides. The functionality of the suggested logical structure is analyzed and simulated by using plane wave expansion (PWE) and finite difference time domain (FDTD) methods. According to results, the proposed all optical 1-bit comparator has faster response and smaller footprint than all previous works. The maximum ON-OFF contrast ratio, delay time and area of the suggested optical comparator are about 16.67 dB, 1.8 ps, and 513 µm2, respectively.

AbstractIn this paper, we are going to propose a novel structure of all-optical NOT, XOR and XNOR logic gates are presented using a two-dimensional photonic crystal (2D-PhC). This structure is optimized by varying the radius of the cavity, to obtain a quality factor Q = 1192, and also has several ports of entry and one port of output. The size of each structure is equal to 85.8 μm2. The contrast ratios for the structures proposed all-optical NOT, XOR and XNOR logic gates between levels “0” and “1” are, respectively, 25.08, 25.03, and 14.47 dB. The response time for the three logical gates is 8.33 ps, and the bit rate is calculated at about 0.12 Tbit/s, all simulations are based on both numerical methods such as finite difference time domain (FDTD) and plane wave expansion (PWE). Designed logic gates are characterized by low power consumption, compactness and easy integration.

Abstract All optical logic gates are building blocks for all optical data processors. One way of designing optical logic gates is using threshold switching which can be realized by combining an optical resonator with nonlinear Kerr effect. In this paper we showed that a novel structure consisting of nonlinear photonic crystal ring resonator which can be used for realizing optical NAND/NOR and majority gates. The delay time of the proposed NAND/NOR and majority gates are 2.5 ps and 1.5 ps respectively. Finite difference time domain and plane wave expansion methods were used for simulating the proposed optical logic gates. The total footprint of the proposed structure is about 988 μm2.

AbstractIn this paper, an ultra-fast all-optical modulator, based on a new shape of nonlinear photonic crystal ring resonator, is designed and studied. Numerical methods such as plane wave expansion (PWE) and finite-difference time domain (FDTD) are used to perform simulations. The modulation technique consists of carrier light controlling by means of input light signal and Kerr effect. The investigation of extinction ratio and insertion loss within the carrier input power shows that the choice of 0.7 W is the optimal value of that power to ensure the tradeoff between both characteristics. The suggested modulator demonstrates an excellent extinction ratio about 20.8018, a very low insertion loss of −13.98 and a short switching time about 13.4 ps. According to the obtained results, the modulator can be considered as an ultra-fast and ultra-compact optical component.

Abstract In optical processing systems, multiplexer is used to design optical devices such as arithmetic logic unit (ALU) and shift register (SR). Through this paper, we investigate the application of nonlinear photonic crystal ring resonator (PhCRR) based on nonlinear Kerr effect for realizing an all optical 2 × 1 multiplexer. The structure consists of two PhCRRs and five optical waveguides using hexagonal lattice silicon (Si) rods with a background of air. Performance of all optical 2 × 1 multiplexer is replicated with the help of finite difference time domain (FDTD) procedure at a wavelength of 1571 nm, and simulations presented an ultra-compact optical structure with ultra-fast switching speed.
