Abstract
ABSTRACT In this paper, all optical OR, AND, NOR and NAND gates based on linear photonic crystals (LPhCs) have been numerically designed and simulated by the plane wave expansion (PWE) and finite difference time domain (FDTD) methods. The LPhC fundamental structure with cross-section of 114 is used for designing the proposed all optical gates (AOGATEs), which is composed of 15 × 23 cubic matrix of dielectric silicon rods in air substrate. The mechanism of the proposed AOGATEs is performed based on phase shift keying (PSK) technique and beam interference effect. Simulation results by FDTD approach illustrate the minimum contrast ratio of 8.88 and 10.31 dB for all optical AND/NOR and OR/NAND logic gates, respectively. Also, the minimum bit rate is obtained as 3.34 Tb/s for AND/NOR and 5 Tb/s for OR/NAND logic gates.
期刊介绍:
Publishing eight times per year, Electromagnetics offers refereed papers that span the entire broad field of electromagnetics and serves as an exceptional reference source of permanent archival value. Included in this wide ranging scope of materials are developments in electromagnetic theory, high frequency techniques, antennas and randomes, arrays, numerical techniques, scattering and diffraction, materials, and printed circuits. The journal also serves as a forum for deliberations on innovations in the field. Additionally, special issues give more in-depth coverage to topics of immediate importance.
All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. Submissions can be made via email or postal mail.
