Ultra compact and fast All Optical Flip Flop design in photonic crystal platform
چکیده انگلیسی

In this work we present a heterostructure All Optical Flip-Flop configuration based on all optical switching with Kerr nonlinear photonic crystal. In this square-hexagonal structure, we propose three different schemes for the cavities in order to show the trade-off between switching time and triggering power. Loss in the system is reasonably low because of the perfect band gap matching at bending points where two lattices join. The proposed RS-Flip Flop has exceptional features, which make it one of the well optimized and most practical structures to be used in the all optical integrated circuits. The novel design has a fast switching action (on the order of a few picoseconds), and low input power (on the order of 100 mW). Furthermore, high contrast of the output signals for ON and OFF states, can help the easy detection or its coupling to the other devices. The structure is fascinatingly uncomplicated, which results in ultra small dimensions which make it suitable to be placed in an all optical integrated circuit. Besides, we provide a profound analytical view on the functioning of the system, as analyzed by the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method.
