Abstract

This paper indicates that the optical bistable devices can be exploited to act as memory bank for parallel optical latching switch. The 4 by 2 array of optical latching switch have been performed in the experiment. When it is used in an optical arithmetic system of symbolic substitution logic, the optical hardwares of arithmetic units are greatly reduced, the optical circuit is much more simplified.
