Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research has developed a 3-dimensional optoelectronic mechanical programmable device consisting of a micro mirror array which is a type of micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS), a laser array, a holographic memory, an optically reconfigurable gate array. In addition, a dynamic circuit implementation method on the 3-dimensional optoelectronic mechanical programmable device has been researched to accelerate the gate array operations. As a result, we have achieved 234 times faster operations than conventional static circuit operations under a programmable architecture.
