One-step Implementation of Two-qubit logic Gates

We propose a simple scheme for realizing the basic two-qubit logic gates with an atom inside a bimodal cavity. In the scheme, a two-qubit quantum phase gate （QPG） and a SWAP gate are performed by only one step. In addition, the controlled-NOT gate （CNOT） can also be implemented from a QPG. Our scheme is based on resonant interaction of an atom with cavity modes. In consideration of atomic spontaneous emission and cavity decay, the quantum logic gates still operate successfully, thus our scheme is insensitive to the decoherence..     

Optical stack filters using parallel fuzzy logic

Stack filters are more general and robust nonlinear filters than median filter, which possess threshold decomposition and stacking properties. Stack filters can be carried out one step using optical parallel fuzzy logic technique instead of three steps in threshold decomposition. All window, width 3 stack filters but two trivial stack filters are expressed in unified expression with coefficiencies to choose desired stack filter, so they are realized by an optical approach, window 3×3 separable stack filters can be realized by cascading the window width 3 stack filters. Window width 5 stack filters can be realized using the same method.

Fuzzy quantum logics and infinite-valued Łukasiewicz logic

A new, physically more plausible definition of a fuzzy quantum logic is proposed. It is shown that this definition coincides with the previously studied definition of a fuzzy quantum logic; therefore it defines objects which are traditional quantum logics with ordering sets of states. The new definition is expressed exclusively in terms of fuzzy set operations which are generated by connectives of multiple-valued logic studied by ukasiewicz at the beginning of the 20th century. Therefore, the logic of quantum mechanics is recognized as a version of infinite-valued ukasiewicz logic.

The algorithm employs directional morphological close-open and open-close operations, then computing the membership of the filtered versions' every pixel according to the designed fuzzy rule. The final filtered image is composed of all the pixels with corresponding maximal membership. The validity of the algorithm is demonstrated.     

Quantum logic gates using coherent population trapping states

A scheme is proposed for achieving a controlled phase gate using interaction between atomic spin dipoles. Further, the spin states are prepared in coherent population trap states (CPTs), which are robust against perturbations, laser fluctuations etc. We show that one-qubit and two-qubit operations can easily be obtained in this scheme. The scheme is also robust against decoherences due to spontaneous emissions as the CPT states used are dressed states formed out of Zeeman sublevels of ground states of the bare atom. However, certain practical issues are of concern in actually obtaining the scheme, which are also discussed at the end of this paper.

All-optical realization of × NOR logic gate using chaotic semiconductor lasers under phase modulator control

The theoretical construction of the fundamental × NOR gate using two injection semiconductor laser diodes due to mutual coupling is presented. Two laser diodes that are commonly driven by a monochromatic light beam result in chaos; however, chaotic synchronization between the two lasers may be achieved by coupling them. The all-optical logic gate is finally implemented by synchronizing or un-synchronizing appropriately the two chaotic states under a phase modulator (PM) control. Numerical results validate the feasibility of the method.

Design of ring resonator based all optical switch for logic and arithmetic operations – A theoretical study

In this paper, a general analysis for non-linear micro-ring resonator as all optical switch is discussed in a vertically coupled GaAs–AlGaAs micro-ring resonator by carrier injection. The ring resonator is optically pumped, which results in temporal shift of resonant wavelength by refractive index change due to carrier injection. A green laser as optical pump beam is used to shift resonant wavelength 1.5 nm of the ring resonator. Simulation, analysis and overall transfer function of single ring as well as cascaded micro-ring resonator (MRR) is studied. A single circuit, consisting of three MRRs, capable to perform all the two input sixteen logic operations is studied and reported. The same circuit can also act as half adder/subtractor and single bit data comparator.     

Dangling-bond logic gates on a Si(100)-(2 × 1)-H surface

Atomic-scale Boolean logic gates (LGs) with two inputs and one output (i.e. OR, NOR, AND, NAND) were designed on a Si(100)-(2 × 1)-H surface and connected to the macroscopic scale by metallic nano-pads physisorbed on the Si(100)-(2 × 1)-H surface. The logic inputs are provided by saturating and unsaturating two surface Si dangling bonds, which can, for example, be achieved by adding and extracting two hydrogen atoms per input. Quantum circuit design rules together with semi-empirical elastic-scattering quantum chemistry transport calculations were used to determine the output current intensity of the proposed switches and LGs when they are interconnected to the metallic nano-pads by surface atomic-scale wires. Our calculations demonstrate that the proposed devices can reach ON/OFF ratios of up to 2000 for a running current in the 10 μA range.

A maximum transconductance Gm of up to 854 mS/mm is achieved, and is comparable to that of m HEMT technology on Ga As substrate with the same dimension. The fTand fmax are 135 GHz and120 GHz, respectively.     

Shape changing collisions of optical solitons, universal logic gates and partially coherent solitons in coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations

Coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations (CNLS) very often represent wave propagation in optical media such as multicore fibers, photorefractive materials and so on. We consider specifically the pulse propagation in integrable CNLS equations (generalized Manakov systems). We point out that these systems possess novel exact soliton type pulses which are shape changing under collision leading to an intensity redistribution. The shape changes correspond to linear fractional transformations allowing for the possibility of construction of logic gates and Turing equivalent all optical computers in homogeneous bulk media as shown by Steiglitz recently. Special cases of such solitons correspond to the recently much discussed partially coherent stationary solitons (PCS). In this paper, we review critically the recent developments regarding the above properties with particular reference to 2-CNLS.
