Abstract

An all optical Gray to BCD converters will be proposed and designed based on photonic crystals. The proposed structure is composed of one XOR gate and a buffer. The final structure consists of 6 optical waveguides and two nonlinear ring resonators. The nonlinear defects are made of doped glass with the Kerr coefficient of 10−14 m2/W. The rest of the structure was made of Si rods with the refractive index of 3.46. The maximum rise time for the proposed structure is 1 ps.

Keywords: BCD code; converter; gray code; photonic crystal
