Abstract

The class of operations achieved by conventional coherent and incoherent optical data processing systems has been somewhat limited. Recent attempts to extend coherent optical processors to space-variant and non-linear operations will be reviewed. In addition, some new thoughts on the possible achievement of complex-valued operations using incoherent light will be presented.
