Abstract: A preparation method of a bismuth oxide film and a reconfigurable photoelectric logic gate are provided. It is discovered for the first time that an open-circuit photovoltage of bismuth oxide varies non-monotonically with a light intensity. A reconfigurable photoelectric logic gate is designed and manufactured by using the unique property of bismuth oxide.

Compared with a conventional electronic logic gate, a photoelectric logic gate having the characteristic of flexible and diversified programmable reconfigurations can implement more complex operation and calculation with fewer components, thereby being expected to play an important role in the upcoming Internet of Things era in which information increases explosively.
