TL;DR: An all-optical prefix tree adder with the help of a terahertz optical asymmetric demultiplexer (TOAD) using a set of optical switches is proposed and the theoretical model is presented and verified through numerical simulation.
Abstract: We propose and describe an all-optical prefix tree adder with the help of a terahertz optical asymmetric demultiplexer (TOAD) using a set of optical switches. The prefix tree adder is useful in compound adder implementation. It is preferred over the ripple carry adder and the carry lookahead adder. We also describe the principle and possibilities of the all-optical prefix tree adder. The theoretical model is presented and verified through numerical simulation. The new method promises higher processing speed and accuracy. The model can be extended for studying more complex all-optical circuits of enhanced functionality in which the prefix tree adder is the basic building block.

Abstract: Optical time-division multiplexing is a natural multiplexing technique leading to terabit/s transmission capacity for many services that will be found in near future optical telecommunication networks. In this paper we have conducted a theoretical study of all-optical time-division multiplexing switching using GaAs-AlGaAs based microring resonator together with performances characteristics. The proposed circuit is more compact, simple and will be helpful in designing all-optical telecommunication circuits in near future. Numerical simulation results confirming described methods are given in this paper.

TL;DR: The performance parameters extinction ratio, contrast ratio, amplitude modulation, and insertion loss for the proposed device have been computed and obtained as 17.980dB, 16.450dB, 1.391dB, 0.022dB respectively.
Abstract: For High-speed processing and optical computing, look ahead carry adder is played a very important role. In this work look ahead carry adder based on electro-optic principle is proposed. Mach-Zehnder interferometer is used as an optical switching device. The performance parameters extinction ratio, contrast ratio, amplitude modulation, and insertion loss for the proposed device have been computed and obtained as 17.980dB, 16.450dB, 1.391dB, 0.022dB respectively.
