XOR Logic Gate by Carbon/Metal Nanoinks Based on a Double-Stage Optical Kerr Gate Configuration

Two-input binary exclusive-or logic operations were presented by the assistance of multiwall carbon nanotubes in a double-stage optical Kerr gate scheme with two control beams. The samples were prepared by the aerosol pyrolysis method and decorated by platinum nanoparticles using a chemical vapor de...
