Based on interference of surface plasmon polariton (SPP) modes in properly designed plasmonic slot waveguides it has been shown that logical XOR and AND operations can be demonstrated using two- and three-branch waveguide configurations. A considerable propagation length of ~31.5 µm has been obtained for the designed structure. LA eng UL http://opsi.ir/article-1-833-fa.html M3 ER -
