At present, an integrated electronic circuit is utilized to process data, and the integration level is difficult to continue to be improved according to Moore's law due to the limitation of quantum tunneling effect, so that the electronic information processing rate is limited by physical characteristics, the contradiction between the electronic information processing rate and the high-rate requirement of information transmission gradually appears, and the optical communication is concerned by people due to the self obvious advantages. Compared with an electronic circuit, the optical computing network runs at the speed of light, and has the advantages of small delay of devices, high computing efficiency, electromagnetic interference resistance, low transmission loss, low power consumption and the like, so that photon computing related devices are developed rapidly. In the transition from electrical logic processing to optical information processing, the most fundamental logical operations in photonic computing systems rely primarily on logic gate implementations, depending on the various optoelectronic devices. The current mode of changing the state of the optical logic gate is generally to use a thermo-optic modulator to perform phase modulation, and use an electrical signal to realize the temperature change of the heater. In the actual operation process, the power consumption of the thermo-optical modulator is high, and in addition, because the adjacent heaters can cause thermal crosstalk, certain requirements are also made on the distance between the adjacent waveguides, which is not beneficial to the improvement of the integration level. The logic gate based on the single-ring mosaic resonant cavity optical system can execute basic logic operations including AND, NOT, NAND, OR and NOR operations, and adopts a stress regulation and control mode (namely, a stress optical modulator) for changing the state of the logic gate, so that the power consumption of the system can be reduced; meanwhile, a logic gate is constructed by adopting a single-ring embedded resonant cavity, the integration level is higher than that of a double-ring logic gate structure, and a logic operation result is output from a specific port in an optical mode. In addition, the structure can be prepared by a micro-nano processing technology, has the advantages of compatibility with a CMOS technology, small size, low energy consumption and the like, and is beneficial to improving the performance of a photonic device.
