“…Optical logic gates can be realized either by exploiting SOA nonlinearities, such as XGM [18][19][20], FWM [20,21], and XPolM [10,22,23]. Berrettini et al [20] have demonstrated an integrable scheme of reconfigurable and ultrafast photonic logic gate, based on a single SOA and able to process ultrafast signals.…”

We highlight the feasibility of experimental implementation of both inverted and noninverted wavelength conversion, 2R regeneration, and all-optical logic functions, such as OR, NOR, XOR, and XNOR optical gates by exploiting the self-polarization rotation in a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) device without changing the setup configuration. Switching between each optical function is done by only adjusting the input optical power level. In order to allow optimum control and preserve the polarization state of the injected and collected signals, the polarimetric measures have been carried out in free space.

“…They have been exploited in many functional applications, including switching (Kawaguchi, 2005), wavelength conversion (Liu et al, 2007), power equalization (Gopalakrishnapillai et al, 2005), 3R regeneration (Bramerie et al, 2004), logic operations (Berrettini et al, 2006), etc., thanks to their nonlinear effects, which are the subject of the current section. The effects are: the self gain modulation (SGM), the self phase modulation (SPM), the self induced nonlinear polarization modulation (SPR), the cross-gain modulation (XGM), the cross-phase modulation (XPM), the four-wave mixing (FWM) and the cross-polarization modulation (XPolM).…”

Abstract:We investigated all-optical flip-flop operations with AND-gate functionality by injecting data and set inputs with different wavelengths to a 1.55-µm polarization bistable vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser. Control of the phase difference between the two inputs is not needed for stable operation, which differs from the same wavelength case we have used thus far. Thus, this proposed method will simplify all-optical signal processing systems. The wavelength difference dependencies of the switching power and the timing jitter of the polarization switching were measured for 1-ns data pulses. For 2 GHz wavelength difference, the data (set) pulse power was about −20 (−14) dBm and the timing jitter was about 110 ps. The BER was about 8 × 10 −3 .
