Experimental results of the fabricated devices.
(a) Scanning electron micrographs of the proposed device, which was fabricated using focused ion beam etching. (b–e) Observed near-field optical images and output characteristics of the half adder using the MMI structure. Upper parts of panels (b–e) are the output characteristics averaged over the 1 μm and normalized with respect to the maximum value of the AND “11” output.
