    Abstract: The paper presents an all-optical 3 bit up counter with complete Boolean functionality as a representative circuit for modeling and optimization of monolithically integrated components. Here, the proposed logic unit design is based on nonlinear effects in semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOA).These equations are first solved to generate the pump, ... Show More
