Abstract

We demonstrate logic functionalities in a high-speed all-optical logic circuit based on differential Mach-Zehnder interferometers with semiconductor optical amplifiers as the nonlinear optical elements. The circuit, implemented by hybrid integration of the semiconductor optical amplifiers on a planar lightwave circuit platform fabricated in silica glass, can be flexibly configured to realize a variety of Boolean logic gates. We present both simulations and experimental demonstrations of cascaded all-optical operations for 80-Gb/s on-off keyed data.

PC: polarization controller; EDFA: erbium-doped fiber amplifier; BPF: bandpass filter. The 10-Gb/s signal from the mode locked laser is multiplexed to 40 Gb/s, amplified and then multiplexed to 80 Gb/s. The output of the 80-Gb/s multiplexor is then split into four copies, generating either data or data bar signals depending on the delay.
