Metal−Organic Framework-Based Ultrafast Logic Gates for High-Security Optical Encryption
摘要
Optical logic gates call for materials with giant optical nonlinearity to break the current performance bottleneck. Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) provide an intriguing route to achieve superior optical nonlinearity benefitting from structural diversity and design flexibility. However
the potential of MOFs for optoelectronics has been largely overlooked and their applications in optical logic have not been exploited. Here
through temporally manipulating the nonlinear optical absorption process in porphyrin-based MOFs
we have successfully developed AND and XOR logic gates with an ultrafast speed approaching 1 THz and an on–off ratio above 90%. On this basis
all-optical information encryption is further demonstrated using transmittance as primary codes
which shows vast prospects in avoiding the disclosure of security information. To the best of our knowledge
this is the first exploration of MOFs for applications in ultrafast optical logic devices and information encryption.
