Abstract
AbstractIn this article, an optical full adder is investigated in terms of light flow inside the two‐dimensional (2‐D) crystal lattice waveguide structures. The phenomenon such as resonance, splitter, and combiner based on the principle of constructive and destructive interference is used in the modeling of all optical full adders. Also, defects are introduced in the junction of the waveguide structures to pass/stop light wave inside the waveguide structure. The designed full adder structure in 2‐D photonic crystals (PhCs) occupies an area of 382.91 μm2 and maximum light confinement at the Sum and Cout output ports are 0.52 and 0.6 arbitrary unit (a.u.), respectively. The response time of the full adder structure is about 0.25 ps and the maximum contrast ratio achieved at the Sum is 7.16 dB and Cout is 5.74 dB. RSoft FullWAVE simulation tool is used to perform a full‐vector simulation of photonic structures.
