Abstract
An attempt is made to use the phenomenon of a two-phonon light scattering with direct transitions between all the optical modes in uniaxial single crystals for the implementation of acousto-optical logic-based device. The exact and closed analytical model for describing this strongly nonlinear phenomenon is developed. The feasibility of applying such an effect to perform an all-optical switching is analyzed in the paper presented. An opportunity for arranging two versions of key components for all-optical J-K flip-flops is revealed and algorithmically estimated.
