Abstract

In the present work, polarization conversion and rotation (PCR) based on a ternary logic for an optical switch has been proposed and described. The proposed design utilizes GaAs material-based racetrack microring resonator. The ternary states of logic are defined by specific polarization states of light. Proposed all-optical ternary circuit is numerically established and simulated using INTERCONNECT simulation software. The acquired results are confirmed by well-known Jones matrix and Stokes parameter methods. The high-speed optical communication exploits the advantages of such multi-valued ternary logic systems.
