Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) A novel design of all-optical logic gates based on nonlinear slot waveguide couplers is proposed. NOT logic gates can be realized by simple one optical directional coupler configuration. Strong polarization dependencies of slot waveguides are effectively utilized for realizing polarization-independent optical directional couplers in linear regime and polarization-dependent all-optical switches in nonlinear regime. All the simulations are done for three-dimensional nonlinear channel waveguide structures by using rigorous numerical schemes based on a full-vector finite-element method especially formulated for nonlinear optical waveguides.
