Abstract:
A novel smart optoelectronic AND gate based on multimode interference structure has been proposed for the first time. Different from conventional methods, the multimode interference structure is employed to realize the AND logic function. It takes advantages of the linear operation and the easy-to-implement logic function. In this paper, the detailed investigations such as configuration of the logic gate, design rules of MMI structure and simulation results have been considered. Furthermore, the multi-input AND gate can be realized by cascading architectures
