This paper presents design and analysis of an optical memory and counter based on ultra-compact temporal integrators (INTs) using a graphene hybrid plasmonic add-drop ring resonator (GHP-ADRR) and pulley-type ring resonator (GHP-PRR) for optical signal processing. Due to the valuable features of graphene hybrid plasmonic technology, the footprint of these INTs is equal to 4 × 3.5 µm for GHP-ADRR and 5.

This paper presents the design and comprehensive analysis of an ultra-fast fractional-order temporal differentiator (DIFF) based on a plasmonic inner-wall Bragg grating microring resonator (BG-MRR). Due to the ring radius of 1.1 µm and the strong confinement of the surface plasmon polaritons in the plasmonic waveguide with very small cross-section, the overall footprint of the DIFF circuit is significantly small (approximately 4 × 2.
