- Abstract
Implementation of switching activity in the all-optical domain is an essential aspect of modern high-speed and secured communication technology. Micro-ring Resonator (MRR) based switching activity can be used to implement all-optical active low tri-state buffer logic and clocked D flip-flop. The paper describes the switching activity of micro-ring resonator structures. The switching activity is further used to implement the effective all-optical 4-bit memory register using the appropriate arrangement of all-optical tri-state buffers and clocked D flip-flops with the functionality of read (RD) and write (WR). The complete description of layouts and switching mechanisms of all-optical 4-bit memory registers have been explained, and appropriate MATLAB simulation results are presented to observe the suitability of the proposed unit. The analysis shows that implementation of tri-state buffer logic and D flip-flop assisted 4-bit memory register in the all-optical domain includes the considerable advantages of optical communication, e.g., immunity to electromagnetic interference, parallel computing, compactness, signal security, etc. The manuscript describes the detailed analysis of performance parameters, e.g., extinction ratio, contrast ratio, amplitude modulation, on–off ratio, and switching speed of micro-ring resonator structures to efficiently select device parameters. Finally, it describes an efficient technique to implement all-optical MRR based 1 × 4 memory registers.
