Abstract
As a two-dimensional parallel digital processing device, we describe a switchable-logic photonic switch array that monolithically integrates metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM) photodetectors, field-effect-transistor (FET) amplifiers, and multiple-quantum-well (MQW) modulators. All-optical positive and negative logic operations are demonstrated with controllable thresholds and a 3-dB bandwidth of 300 MHz. In this device, the logic mode is switched by changing the bias voltage polarity of the MSM photodetector.Keywords
