Analysis of Tera Hertz Optical Asymmetric Demultiplexer(TOAD) based Optical Switch Using Soliton Pulse

Abstract

TOAD based interferometric switch is analyzed in terms of time dependent gain. The dependence of gain on control pulse width is also shown. Output power of the transmitted and reflected port of the switch is calculated for a soliton pulse train. This is shows possibility of application in the implementation of optical logic gates and processors.
