Webpage with detailed and complete information on logic gates:
The diffractive patterns were made by using a home-brewed windows Zone plate app and then modifying them further with photoshop. The Zone Plate app can be downloaded from:
For Windows 10 and for personal use only. Virus scanners and Windows will nag about it being a rare / unknown file and make installation sometimes difficult. Sorry about that. Install this app at your own risk.
An overview article on various known optical logic gates can be found in this paper:
However it does not contain any mention of the configuration described in this video
The video contains references to detail videos on the following subjects:
Photolithography:
Chromium photomask etching:
Other diffractive optics (photon sieves):
