Photonic crystal waveguides provide a way to manipulate the performance of an optical signal in an ultra-small volume and are quite viable in designing chip-based components that will work all-optically. Here, in this article an all-optical half adder is proposed. It is based on a square lattice photonic crystal waveguide in which silicon rods are arranged periodically. The photonic crystal offers a wide photonic band-gap in the desired region of telecommunication wavelength (i. e. near λ = 1550 nm. The performance of half Adder is measured using the contrast ratio and response time. The contrast ratio for sum and carry is 5.2 dB and 16.7 dB, respectively. The proposed half adder is miniaturized in size and having a footprint of 49 µm2 only. The total response time of the proposed adder is 1.4 picoseconds only. So, the device offers a high bit rate of 0.714 Tb/sec. The proposed half adder is an optimum choice for its application in on-chip optical integrated circuits. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
