Trinary registers and counters using savart plate and spatial light modulator for optical computation in multivalued logic

Abstract

Registers and counters are the most important devices in any system of computations. In this paper we have communicated the trinary registers and counters in modified trinary number (MTN) system. It is suitable for the optical computing and other applications in multivalued logic system. Here the savart plate and spatial light modulator (SLM) based optoelectronic circuits have been used to exploit the optical tree architecture (OTA) in optical interconnection network.
