Abstract

In this paper we are going to propose an all-optical structure for implementing Galois field adder. To do so, we will use four optical XOR gates. The working principle of the proposed structure is based on destructive interference of optical waves. By choosing different lengths for the input waveguides, 180\(^\circ \) of phase difference will be generated between the optical waves. In the final structure, the normalized power for logic 0 and 1 at the output ports was 1 and 45%. Time delay of the proposed structure is about 1.5 ps.
