The principal investigators have proposed a novel idea of using                 nonlinear 2-d thin film to obtain circuit integration via reversible            nonlinear interface as a computing element (optical gate).  The                 investigators have already demonstrated these concepts by designing a           thin film binary half-adder which has great potential for extending             the work to both memory and crossbar designs and hence to more complex          computing circuits.  Ion or laser-enhanced chemical vapor deposition            or similar techniques will be used to fabricate these novel                     structures, which involves the placing of strips of different material          on the same horizontal plane to the order of 10-50 micrometers.
