“…This paper presents a novel photonic circuit capable of implementing the AND/NAND logic operations simultaneously over two electro-optic modulated MZIs using a lithium niobate substrate. Compared with previous works [9] , signal synchronization problems are eliminated in the device, and using only two MZIs, which facilitates greatly the enhancement of the signal quality as well as the mitigation of device insertion loss. Here, an analysis of the respective parameters affecting the device performance and the spectral behavior of the output port is conducted to achieve additional optimization of the device performance.…”

We propose a novel photonic circuit capable of implementing the AND/NAND logic operations over two cascaded Mach-Zehnder interferometers. Two electrical signals that stand for the two operands of the operations are applied to the arms of the Mach-Zehnder interferometers, which are modulated through the electro-optic effect, and the outcome of the operation is channelled as light to the output port. The model of this device has been analyzed, and the results are verified by numerical simulation.
