基于新型Hydex波导与微腔结构的片上全光逻辑门研究

CMOS-compatible on-chip optical logic gate is a key element in all optical signal processing that used in long distance optical communications and photonic network-on-chip. Until now, most of CMOS-compatible logic gates are based on silicon waveguide, and performance of them is limited by TPA effect which arise s large nonlinear absorption loss. Therefore, developing new nonlinear platform is the key of good performance of logic gates. In this project, Hydex waveguide is used deal with the high nonlinear loss problem. Research results show that Hydex waveguide has high nonlinear effect, low linear and nonlinear loss, low dispersion with broadband flat dispersion curves. The objective of this project is realizing all optical logic AND and XOR gate for signal that faster than 10Gbps. There are two main advantages: 1) This is the first study of all-optical logic gate based on Hydex waveguide and micro-cavity, which can resolve the problem of high nonlinear loss in the silicon waveguide platform; 2) High-order ring cavity is used to increase the data rate of logic gate and lower the threshold. This project opens up a new direction for CMOS-compatible all optical logic gates. The study of logic gate based on Hydex structure not only has high academic value in on-chip nonlinear optics, but also has practical significance in optical signal processing in future photonic VLSI
