Abstract

Abstract In this paper the design and analysis of two dimensional photonic crystals based all optical AND logic gate is investigated. A logic gate implements a Boolean function and thus performs a logical operation on one or several logic inputs in order to produce a single logic input. The proposed all optical AND gate is designed with line and point defect using a hexagonal lattice with “Y” shaped defect. In order to meet the requirements for high speed networks the proposed gate designed. The functional parameters such as contrast ratio, bit rate, normalized efficiency and response time are calculated. The performance of the AND gate is analyzed by using the Finite Difference Time Domain method. The proposed logic gate is designed to operate at 1550 nm. It provides high contrast ratio and minimum delay time. Hence it is suitable for optical sensors and optical integrated circuits.
