Abstract
Many architectures that perform digital optical logic have been proposed and built. Most of them use intensity-encoded logic where, for example, the presence of light would indicate logical true and the absence of light logical false. This way of encoding logic information has several disadvantages, e.g. light being irretrievably lost when switching from light ON to light OFF.
