چکیده (انگلیسی):

In the recent years reversible logic design has promising applications in low power computing, optical
computing, quantum computing. VLSI design mainly concentrates on low power logic circuit design. In
the present scenario researchers have made implementations of reversible logic gates in optical domain
for its low energy consumption and high speed. This study is all about designing a reversible Full adder
using combination of all optical Toffoli and all optical TNOR and to compare it with the Full adder
designed using all optical Toffoli gate in terms of optical cost. All optical TNOR gate can work as a
replacement of existing NAND based All optical Toffoli Gate (TG). The gates are designed using Mach-
Zehnder Interferometer (MZI) based optical switch. The proposed system is developed with the basic of
reversibility to design all optical full Adder implemented with CMOS transistors. The design is efficient
in terms of both architecture and in power consumption.
