Introduction

A gate is defined as a digital circuit which follows some logical relationship between the input and output voltages. It is a digital circuit which either allows a signal to pass through as stop, it is called a gate. The logic gates are building blocks at digital electronics. They are used in digital electronics to change on voltage level (input voltage) into another (output voltage) according to some logical statement relating them. A logic gate may have one or more inputs, but it has only one output. The relationship between the possible values of input and output voltage is expressed in the form of a table called truth table or table of combinations. Truth table of a Logic Gates is a table that shows all the input and output possibilities for the logic gate. George Boole in 1980 invented a different kind of algebra based on binary nature at the logic, this algebra of logic called BOOLEAN ALGEBRA. A logical statement can have only two values, such as HIGH/LOW, ON/OFF, CLOSED/OPEN, YES/NO, RIGHT/WRONG, TRUE/FALSE, CONDUCTING/NON-CONDUCTING ,etc. The two values of logic statements one denoted by the binary number 1 and 0. The binary number 1 is used to denote the high value. The logical statements that logic gates follow are called Boolean expressions.

PRINCIPLE
Any Boolean algebra operation can be associated with inputs and outputs represent the statements of Boolean algebra. Although these circuits may be complex, they may all be constructed from three basic devices. We have three different types of logic gates .These are the AND gate, the OR gate and the NOT gate.

LOGIC STATES 1 HIGH ON CLOSE RIGHT TRUE YES 0 LOW OFF OPEN WRONG FALSE NO

OR GATE
Components:
Two ideal p-n junction diode (D1 and D2).

Theory and Construction:


An OR gate can be realize by the electronic circuit, making use of two diodes D1 and D2 as shown in the figure. Here the negative terminal of the battery is grounded and corresponds to the 0 level, and the positive terminal of the battery (i.e. voltage 5V in the present case) corresponds to level 1. The output Y is voltage at C w.r.t. earth.

The following interference can be easily drawn from the working of electrical circuit is: a) If switch A & B are open lamp do not glow (A=0, B=0), hence Y=0. b) If Switch A open B closed then (A=0, B=1) Lamp glow, hence Y=1. c) If switch A closed B open then (A=1, B=0) Lamp glow, hence Y=1. d) If switch A & B are closed then (A=1, B=1) Lamp glow, hence Y=1.

AND GATE
Components:
Two ideal p-n junction diode (D1 and D2), a resistance R.

Theory and Construction:


An AND gate can be realize by the electronic circuit, making use of two diodes D1 and D2 as shown in the figure. The resistance R is connected to the positive terminal of a 5V battery permanently. Here the negative terminal of the battery is grounded and corresponds to the 0 level, and the positive terminal of the battery (i.e. voltage 5V in the present case) corresponds to level 1. The output Y is voltage at C w.r.t. earth.

The following conclusions can be easily drawn from the working of electrical circuit: a) If both switches A&B are open (A=0, B=0) then lamp will not glow, hence Y=0. b) If Switch A closed & B open (A=1, B=0) then Lamp will not glow, hence Y=0. c) If switch A open & B closed (A=0, B=1) then Lamp will not glow, hence Y=0. d) If switch A & B both closed (A=1, B=1) then Lamp will glow, hence Y=1.

A NOT gate cannot be realized by using diodes. However an electronic circuit of NOT gate can be realized by making use of a n-p-n transistor as shown in the figure. The base B of the transistor is connected to the input A through a resistance Rb and the emitter E is earthed. The collector is connected to 5V battery. The output Y is voltage at C w.r.t. earth.

The following conclusion can be easily drawn from the working of the electrical circuit: a) b) If switch A is open (i.e. A=0), the lump will glow, hence Y=1. If Switch A is closed (i.e. A=1), the lump will not glow, hence Y=0.

Theory and Construction:


If we connect the output Y of OR gate to the input of a NOT gate the gate obtained is called NOR. The output Y is voltage at C w.r.t. earth.

In Boolean expression, the NOR gate is expressed as Y=A+B, and is being read as A OR B negated. The following interference can be easily drawn from the working of electrical circuit is: a) If Switch A & B open (A=0, B=0) then Lamp will glow, hence Y=1. b) If Switch A closed & B open (A=1, B=0) then Lamp will not glow, hence Y=0. c) If Switch A open & B close (A=0, B=1) then Lamp will not glow, hence Y=0. d) If switch A & B are closed then (A=1, B=1) Lamp will not glow, hence Y=0.

POLARISATION OF LIGHT
A light beam which has all of the wave oscillations in a single plane of space is said to have total plane polarization. Light with an equal amount of oscillations in all directions is unpolarized. The in-between case is one where there is partially polarized light. Most sources of light in nature to not emit polarized light. To do so would require the oscillating electric charges that produce it to move in unison in the same direction.

For a plane polarized beam. We can always subdivide the amplitude as the vector sum of two perpendicular components. We will see that this is useful, because we can usually choose how to do the subdivision to solve a particular problem. If we could see the amplitudes for a beam coming directly toward us, it might look like this.

Similarly, an unpolarized beam could be represented this way

13

TRANSMISSION
Polarizing filters, such as those in Polaroid sunglasses, are designed to allow only one plane of light through (although they are not 100% effective, they can be pretty close to that value).

14

In each case shown, the second filter allows only that component that lies in the transmission direction though. In (a), all of the amplitude is in the transmission direction, so it all gets through. In (b), none of the amplitude is in the transmission direction, so none gets through. In (c), the transmission direction is rotated 45 to the direction of the amplitude, so some of the light gets through.

15

POLARISATION BY REFLECTION

Light striking a surface, such as a piece of glass, the surface of water, etc., can be both transmitted through the surface and reflected from it. The amount that is transmitted or reflected, and its polarization, depends on the angle of incidence and the material it is hitting. Parallel component: The amplitude runs along the plane of the surface as it hits Perpendicular component: The amplitude is in the plane of incidence

16

For the parallel component, there is always some reflection, even when the angle of incidence 1 is 0. At higher angles of incidence, the reflectance increases until it reaches 100% at grazing incidence. The perpendicular component has a more complex behavior. It begins at the same reflectance as the parallel beam at 1=0, slowly decreases to 0 reflectance at some specific angle, then increases. The angle where the reflection goes to 0% (and the transmission to 100%) is called Brewsters Angle. and it depends on the index of refraction of the material.

17

POLARISATION BY SCATTERING

The scattering of light off air molecules produces linearly polarized light in the plane perpendicular to the incident light. The scatterers can be visualized as tiny antennae which radiate perpendicular to their line of oscillation. If the charges in a molecule are oscillating along the y-axis, it will not radiate along the y-axis. Therefore, at 90 away from the beam direction, the scattered light is linearly polarized. This causes the light which undergoes Rayleigh scattering from the blue sky to be partially polarized.

18

OPTICAL ACTIVITY

Some crystals and organic materials have a twisted molecular structure that produces another interesting effect: optical activity. Here, the plane of polarization rotates as the beam passes through the material, and it can rotate different amounts for different wavelengths. This phenomenon is useful for analyzing mineral crystals and organic pharmaceuticals.

19

POLARISED LIGHT IN THE ENVIRONMENT

Due to the optical properties of various natural and artificial materials, the effects of polarized light are all around us. In addition to Haidingers Brush, we often use polarized filters in the form of sunglasses to cut glare due to reflected sunlight. It is also used to darken the sky in photography, remove glare from subjects behind windows, etc.
