Abstract
A novel frequency encoded all optical half adder, half subtractor and full adder are proposed. The implementation is ultrafast one and the frequency encoding makes it intensity loss dependent problem free. The use of polarization insensitive four-wave mixing makes the design polarization independent and the hardware simple. The frequency conversion by the reflective semiconductor optical amplifiers (RSOA) makes the design faster compared to other semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOA) based design.
