An
optical logic device and a
logic implementation method therefor. The
optical logic device comprises: a first straight
waveguide (20), a second straight
waveguide (21), two ring waveguides (3), two
phase change functional units (4), four electrodes (5) and an optical detection device. The two ring waveguides (3) are spaced between the first straight
waveguide (20) and the second straight waveguide (21); the two
phase change functional units (4) respectively cover upper surfaces of the two ring waveguides (3); and two ends of each
phase change functional unit (4) are each connected to one
electrode (5). The first straight waveguide (20) comprises a first input end (a) and a first output end (b), and the second straight waveguide (21) comprises a second output end (c), wherein the first output end (b) and the first input end (a) are arranged on different sides, the second output end (c) and the first input end (a) are arranged on the same side, the first input end (a) is used for inputting an optical
signal, the optical
signal is a
signal that does not change the state of the phase change functional unit (4), and the state of the phase change functional unit (4) comprises a crystalline state and an amorphous state. Each ring waveguide (3) comprises a second input end, wherein the second input end is composed of electrodes (5) at two ends of a phase change functional unit (4), the ring waveguide (3) is used for
coupling an optical signal in the first straight waveguide (20) to the ring waveguide (3) and
coupling an optical signal in the ring waveguide (3) to the second straight waveguide (21), the second input end is used for inputting an electrical signal, and the electrical signal is a signal that can change the state of the phase change functional unit (4). The optical detection device is connected to both the first output end (b) and the second output end (c), and is used for monitoring the
transmittance of the optical signal outputted by the first output end (b) and the second output end (c) when the phase change functional unit (4) is in different states. The
optical logic device has the characteristics of a compact structure, simple operation and a large on-off ratio, thereby improving the computational speed and capability of optical logic operations.
