Problems solved by technology

However, silicon-based electro-optic logic AND / NAND gates with a microring resonator structure are prone to glitches due to coupling between rings and tuning conversions of different wavelengths, resulting in low extinction ratio, and the bandwidth is limited by its objective structure. Narrower, smaller manufacturing tolerances

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a silicon-based optical logic AND / NAND gate, in particular to a silicon-based electro-optical logic AND / AND gate. Background technique [0002] With the rapid increase of the amount of modern information, people have higher and higher requirements for the processor's information processing capability, so most of the existing processors adopt a parallel multi-core structure. How to realize efficient data exchange and processing between cores and between cores and external storage units has become an urgent problem to be solved. Although speed, power consumption and bandwidth limit the application of electrical interconnection in modern high-performance information transmission and processing systems, forming the so-called "electronic bottleneck". However, light is an ideal information carrier with inherent characteristics of high speed, large capacity and parallelism. As the current dominant technology, silicon-based photonics ...
