Optical combination devices based on telescoping nanotubes and nanofibers are considered. Optical analog nano-multiplexer, optical analog nano-demultiplexer, and optical logic nanodevice are constructed with using the single functional element which operating principle is based on the movement of the internal nanotube under influence of a controlling electrical signal and change of optical links between nanofibers. The optical logic nanodevice realizes a full set of Boolean functions of two variables, which, in their turn, are defined by the code in-coming to controlling inputs. The optical combination devices proposed are perspective for design and development of optical nanocomputers and nano-transceivers due to their simplicity and high performance.
