基于光学双稳器件的计算机

Computer Based on Optical Bistability Devices

在当今信息化时代,电子计算机已成为人们生活和工作中不可或缺的重要工具,科学技术的不断发展,对电子计算机的要求也越来越高.但由于电子计算机自身存在着不可克服的缺陷和弊端,从而限制了它的进一步发展.而基于光学双稳器件的光学计算机利用的是光的基本特性,不存在电子计算机那样的缺陷,并且还具有电子计算机无可比拟的优良性能.近几十年来,随着非线性光学的飞速发展,在光学双稳研究上取得重大突破,使光学计算机的研制成功成为可能.

In todays information era, computer has become an important tool in man＇s life and work. The continuous development of science and technology make the requirements for computer higher and higher. However, the shortcomings and disadvantages of electronics computer limit its further development. And electronics computer based on optical bistability devices, making use of the fundamental characteristics of light, without the shortcomings and disadvantages of electronics computer, has the excellent performance that electronic computer can＇t surpass. In recent decades, with the rapid nonlinear optical development, a major breakthrough in research of optical bistability makes the research and production of optical computer possible.
