Abstract

In this paper an all-optical half adder has been designed on a 2D photonic crystal slab having air holes in a hexagonal lattice pattern. The working principal of the device is based on beam interference. Multi-mode interference based Pi phase shifter been used in this design. Neither any nonlinear materials nor any extra bias signal has been incorporated in the structure. Plain wave expansion and Finite Difference Time Domain methods have been used for analyzing the band diagram of the structure and performance of the proposed device respectively. The SUM port provides 60%, 67%, and 1% transmittance whereas the CARRY port provides 4%, 1%, and 90% transmission for {0,1}, {1,0}, and {1,1} logic combinations respectively. Minimum contrast ratio has been obtained as 18 dB in SUM port and 12.5 dB in CARRY port. Therefore, it is expected that the proposed all-optical adder would be a potential candidate for future generation photonic integrated circuits.
