Simulation and Demonstration of Directed XOR/XNOR Logic Gates Using Two Cascaded Microring Resonators

We propose and demonstrate a directed optical logic circuit that can perform the XOR and XNOR logic operations consisting of two cascaded microring resonators, i.e., an upper waveguide and an under waveguide. No waveguide crossings exist in the circuit, which is very useful to improve the signal qua...
