Abstract

A multi-port optical logic NOT gate based on multimode interference principle is proposed. To achieve different output states at the output ports of the device, plasma dispersion effect is applied to get phase difference between signal light and control light. Calculated result shows that the average extinction ratio and insertion loss of the device are 19.8 dB and 0.04 dB, respectively. The device is expected to contribute to future all-optical networks and computations.
