摘要

The performance of all-optical logic NXOR gate based on semiconductor optical amplifiers Mach-Zehnder interferometer (SOAs-MZI) is simulated.The effects of amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) and the input pulse energy on the system's quality factor are studied.For the parameters used,the all-optical logic gates using SOAs are capable of operating at speed of 80 Gbit/s.
