Caption

Demonstration and application of large-scale optical programmable logic array. (a) Nine-input PLA realized by combining wavelength and spatial dimensions. (b) Statement machine to infer the date (month and day) according to the provided day of the year based on 9-input PLA. (c) Oscillator (pulsar) in Conway's Game of Life. (d) Nonisotropic evolution, in which a single-cell pattern can create the Sierpinski triangle by two-dimensional cellular automaton.
