All optical tri-state frequency encoded logic gates NOT and NAND are proposed and numerically investigated using TOAD based interferometric switch for the first time to the best of our knowledge. The optical power spectrum, extinction ratio, contrast ration, and amplified spontaneous noise are calculated to analyze and confirm practical feasibility of the gates. The proposed device works for low switching energy and has high contrast and extinction ratio as indicated in this work.

This paper focuses on photogenerated carrier nonlinearities in InGaAs/InAlAs quantum wells (QWs) that use low optical power, display a relatively fast recovery time (280 ps down to 35 ps), and excellent optical properties in terms of the sharpness of the absorption edge. A guided-wave, all-optical switching device is demonstrated as an application, at a wavelength which is of interest to telecommunication systems (1.55 μm) and requires low control energy (<0.3 pJ/pulse). A key issue here is that the controlled introduction of defects in the QW heterostructures allows the time response to be fastened significantly without being detrimental to the performance of the device in terms of on-off contrast and switching energy. The preparation procedure is compatible with metalorganic-based growth techniques widespread in optoelectronics at 1.55 μm.
