Transistor Laser Optical NOR Gate for High Speed Optical Logic Processors

Abstract : Three-terminal transistor laser is the keyelement to forming a universal electro-optical NOR gatewhich can be developed into a compact chip-levelsolution for optical logic processors operating at GHzspeed. We proposes an optical bistable latch can be builtwith two universal photonic NOR gate circuits, which areimplemented by the three-port tunneling junctiontransistor lasers (TJ-TLs).
