摘要

In this paper, authors propose and design a new all-optical frequency encoded signed 1-bit half subtractor based on two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystal structure. The proposed half subtractor system can perform the binary subtraction between two 1-bit numbers by realizing difference bit and sign bit. To design the proposed structure, some photonic crystal semiconductor optical amplifiers (PC-SOAs), optical filters, and linear waveguides have been used. The switching operation has been achieved by exploiting cross-gain modulation property of PC-SOAs. This proposed structure operates within the frequency range of 0.574548 \(\:{\mu\:m}^{-1}\) − 0.840877 \(\:{\mu\:m}^{-1}\) . The dimension of wafer used for this proposed structure is 1479 µm2. The response time of the structure is 0.67 ps and is capable of operating at a bit rate of 1.5 Tbps. These results are obtained by the simulation experiment with opti-FDTD software. Due to its fast response time and high bit rate, the proposed optical half subtractor has the potentiality to be used in optical micro-computing, data processing, and integrated circuits.
