An all-optical half adder using semiconductor optical amplifier based devices is suggested and demonstrated at 10 Gbit/s. Boolean A B and A B out of two semiconductor optical amplifiers have been obtained and combined to achieve an all-optical XOR gate, which is logic SUM. Also, an all-optical XPM wavelength converter has been utilized to obtain an all-optical AND gate, which is logic CARRY. Logic SUM and CARRY are simultaneously realized. No additional input beam such as clock signal or continuous wave light other than input signals A and B is used in this new design, which is required in many other all-optical logic gates.
