Abstract

Three kinds of nonlinear ring resonators were used for designing an all optical encoder based on photonic crystals. The simulation results show that when more than one input port is active the priority is with the highest order input port. Therefore the proposed structure can serve as an all optical photonic crystal based priority encoder. The rise time for the proposed structure is 1 ps.
