TL;DR: By using the gain nonlinearity characteristics of semiconductor optical amplifier, an all-optical binary half adder at 10 Gbps is demonstrated and the possibilities for the enhanced complex logic operation and higher chances for multiple logic integration are explored.

TL;DR: By using the cross gain modulation (XGM) characteristics of semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs), multi-functional all-optical logic gates including XOR, NOR, and NAND gates are successfully demonstrated at 10 Gbps in single format.

TL;DR: An all-optical full adder using semiconductor optical amplifiers has been demonstrated at 10 Gbps for the first time and utilize two logic functions of SUM and CARRY, which can be demonstrated by using two XOR gates and four NOR gates, respectively.

TL;DR: In this article, an all-optical binary half adder at 10 Gbps was demonstrated using gain nonlinearity characteristics of semiconductor optical amplifier, which can be demonstrated by using the XOR gate and the AND gate, respectively.

TL;DR: Using the cross-gain modulation (XGM) characteristics of semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs), multi-functional all-optical logic gates including XOR, AND, and OR gates are successfully demonstrated at 10 Gbps by using VPI component makerTM simulation tool.
