    Area of Science:

    • Photonics and Optics
    • Materials Science
    • Nonlinear Optics

    Background:

    • All-optical logic operations are crucial for high-speed information processing.
    • Tamm plasmons (TPs) offer unique light-matter interaction properties.
    • Existing methods often require high optical intensities for bistable switching.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To propose a novel method for low-threshold all-optical bistable logic control.
    • To investigate the use of Tamm plasmons in an asymmetric dielectric Bragg reflector-metal-DBR (ADMD) structure.
    • To demonstrate all-optical logic operations controlled by pump and probe light.

    Main Methods:

    • Theoretical investigation of an ADMD structure incorporating a Kerr medium.
    • Excitation of Tamm plasmons (TPs) supported by the ADMD structure.
    • Analysis of the structure's reflection spectrum and nonlinear optical response.

    Main Results:

    • The ADMD structure supports two TPs, creating two distinct dips in the reflection spectrum.
    • Enhanced Kerr nonlinearity due to TP excitation enables bistable switching at low injection intensity.
    • Pump light variations (strength or direction) effectively control the bistable switching of probe light.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed TP-based ADMD structure facilitates efficient all-optical bistable logic control.
    • Low-threshold operation is achieved due to enhanced nonlinear effects associated with TPs.
    • This method offers a promising pathway for developing advanced all-optical logic devices.
