Fibre-optic metadevice for all-optical signal modulation based on coherent absorption

Fibre-optic metadevice for all-optical signal modulation based on coherent absorption

Here, the authors show that integration of metamaterial and optical fibre technologies enables all-optical XOR, NOT and AND logical functions that are performed at up to 40 gigabits per second with few femtojoules per bit energy consumption within a coherent fully fiberized network.
