Design of all optical ternary logic based half adder circuit and it’s applications

Abstract

Ternary Half adder circuit with optical nonlinear material (OPNLM) based switch is proposed and discussed. The designing of Ternary incrementer / decrementer circuits and Ternary full adder circuit with the proposed Ternary half adder circuit are also described here. Polarized lights of different states are considered as the inputs of the logical operations.
