Abstract

Silicon micro-ring resonator-based generation of all-optical (2×2) Walsh–Hadamard code is proposed. The energy-efficient, ultra-high-speed, and compact nature of micro-ring resonator-based devices is essential for optical computing. Both MATLAB and the Ansys Lumerical finite difference time domain (FDTD) approach are used to implement the generation of all-optical (2×2) Walsh–Hadamard code. The proposed design is simulated at about 260 Gbps. In the recommended circuit, the needed pump power for switching is merely 0.84 mW, which is extremely little in contrast. The “figure of merits” of the proposed design is evaluated through numerical simulation. The obtained contrast ratio and extinction ratio are considerably greater at 25.24 and 14.63 dB, respectively. On the other hand, the achieved amplitude modulation of 0.13 dB is extremely low. The on-off ratio for a single micro-ring resonator is 36.9 dB.
